    I like this idea but very skeptical it'll catch on. I just think people have a tendency to hide their feelings on the internet so that they appear strong and happy.

    Sure, it's not for everyone, but I think it would be very rare for someone to admit they were sad or angry, especially if it were because of someone who might see it.

      Yes but it's not just putting your feelings out on the internet, it is only seen by the people you select. So I guess your closest friends.

      I just installed the app and the first struggle is inviting people, which is done by sending the link with fb messenger to your friends. I'm also pretty skeptical because I don't know if it is worth having an app for something that could just be a feature in existing apps (messenger, whatsapp).
