## What is emo?

About :))))))))

• Live moments are irreplaceable, so we developed emo.
• emo uses @mastodon and @matrix and open-sources social networking protocols and IM communication protocols.
• emo disables selecting photos from the album to keep things real.
• emo won't make you famous. If you want to be an influencer, you can go to TikTok and Instagram.
• emo is about your real life, not meticulously edited vanity.
• emo requires location permission for a better app experience.
• emo doesn't care if you have a million fans or are a "KOL" .
• emo won't waste your time or make you socially anxious.
• emo doesn't store your images/location/sensitive information data.


"emo" is not a social network, but a free, open, and uncensored RAW territory. It offers unique cyberpunk-style filters, a world map that shows what is happening worldwide, subculture 3D avatars, and genetic tags. We believe in the uniqueness of the "live" experience, so the photo album feature is disabled upon release. Everything you see on emo is real and happening.

Connect with friends and share what's happening in the moment, or check out the latest events happening around the world. Join or create a group, whether it's a gaming group, 
rock music, electronic psychedelic, skateboard enthusiasts community and more.

- Fully anonymous and secure expression of your views. You decide who you are on emo

- Discover what's happening around you, see where your friends and classmates are now

- Leave messages for your friends in the chat room and have fun with cool stickers/GIFs to meet all your expression needs

- While providing a range of unprecedented features, we pay very close attention to keeping the interface simple and beautiful.
