    visions of a greater impact at astra

    astra-labs

    what makes social media apps good is something you can’t measure.

    social-mediasoftwaremost-read
    People do not download apps for the features, they do it for the cultural relevance: to themselves, to others, to major events, or to patterns they may not themselves recognize. Anyone can create a generic social media app. Very few can create a product that enables the community who uses it to create part of their identity. That identity with the product brings cultural relevance.
