I built this site as a quick test if a time boxed social media experience feels better than an endless one. So far I've just been using it with friends and it feels nice, but it seems like it is time to bring it to a larger audience.

Let me know what you think! It is just based on EST for now, sorry.

Great idea, but it should be open 24/7 with eight 3-hour windows. One account can only use a single window during the 24-hour period. This will handle the timezone differences.

genius!

[edit] I realised as soon as I pressed send that immediately there will be a service that let's you open 8 accounts and seamlessly operate them as a single one.

That can be a paid feature for business accounts

Thus immediately killing anything good about the project. It’s barely been announced and we’re already brainstorming the shortest path to enshittification.

Things are allowed to exist for fun, most things don’t have to (or should) be concentrated on profit.
