Life as an entrepreneur can be a tough and lonely ride

#12I don't like that it says 'Always meet friends of the same gender'. As a male, I want to be able to meet female friends as well. Why is it limited by gender?
At the moment, we're keeping genders separate. I know, it's very 90's. The issue is that we're just two guys and we don't want to police the platform. The reality is that the friendship apps out there are thinly-veiled dating apps, and that's ruined it for everyone else just looking for friends.
I put down some more thoughts on this in this blog post: https://www.we3app.com/why-tribes-same-gender/
We'll be experimenting with mixed genders later this year, but it will have to be in a careful rollout to make sure it's not abused.

Perhaps consider having no visible gender queues. Maybe go so far as to also not show names. If the goal is truely for friends, does the gender and name matter?

It doesn't, but the problem is that people aren't usually very kind to other people on the internet. So I can see a good chunk of users rollin' the dice and seeing if they match with attractive people, and if they don't, they just move along. This would ruin the experience for the other two people that are left hanging and feeling like shit. I really want to prevent that from happening.

#20Fun fact, this is very close to the original goal of Adult Friend Finder before its pivot to a more specific type of connection.
lol. not surprised, though. THat's where the money is. ANd that's why all other "friendship apps" are really thinly-veiled dating apps. SAD!
Has it occurred to you that it’s not “where the money is,” but perhaps rather “where human behavior is?” There’s a reason “friendship” apps don’t work.
