That's nice work. Do you have plans to add a web interface? I think at least for viewing/commenting posts. That way posts could reach a larger audience
As for myself, I spend 90% of my time (outside of work) alone, and there are a lot of wonderful things I see and think while wandering slowly in the early morning or evenings. It's not that I want to be alone, it's just really hard to find the right people, even knowing they're out in the world.
I wouldn't want to spend too much time interacting with my phone, but this app could be a nice place to check in and see that others are delighting in the world just the same as me, wandering alone. Like a nod to strangers who share the same concept. Nice work.
I signed up to wait for the Android version.

I signed up for the Android version. Looking forward to it.
Social networking sites are all predicated on the assumption that people want to be social. And yet, we hear how people are actually becoming more solitary, more lonely. I look at this and think "there's a disconnect here, and it's getting worse over time."
We need anti-social networks: networks that get the lonely and solitary people. Once those networks become established, then we might have a chance to help people become less lonely (I'm taking it as given that we only care about people who want to become less lonely). I don't know what that would look like, and maybe wtsui isn't even thinking about all this, but I'm convinced that Solo, or something like it, is the right place to start.
As it stands, because it's a free app, my concern is that if I use it, then I will probably end up being the product instead of the customer.
I wish I knew if this is a business or a project. If it's a business, I wish I could understand the business model. As it stands, because it's a free app, my concern is that if I use it, then I will probably end up being the product instead of the customer.

It is and always will be a non-profit project, so no need to worry.
