An App That Actually Tries To Help You Be More Open Minded and Curious


What if a social media platform could encourage more cultural exploration rather than relentlessly personalizing your feed to keep you closed off to anything new? That is the bold vision for a new platform called Adduna created by software developer Carol Glenn and currently running on Kickstarter.

The app allows you to signal what you are interested in, but does not close off other stories to your feed because it eliminates the feed entirely. Instead, it promotes stories from a wider range of sources and lets people create groups based on interests. It’s a beautiful idea and one that I have already donated to make a reality. The world needs more people creating more platforms like this.
