🧠Beautiful brains

refreshing new social app

been using River for close to half a year now & i find it solves a lot of issues other social apps have. it’s refreshing to connect with people whether it be a reply on a random post, a connection to a board you made, or a message. everyone on there is intentional about their posts & feels like a true community of creative minded people. 5 stars for all the Lifestars on there & especially the team behind it all🌟

I want to use this app with my future children.

No other app compares to the love I have for this app and the community on it. I can’t imagine a better app to introduce my future children to. I’d be like, ā€œlook, this is your community now. I walked so you could run. Now run bartholemew(that’s his name). Run and post everything.ā€ That pretty much sums up how I feel about this app.

Awesome! - suggestions:

This app is super cool! It reminds me of old tumblr <3 I just wish it had a ā€œlikeā€ feature as well, so I’d be able to interact with other people without having to comment or repost.

Some say love is like a River

I love wading through the many microcosms and moments that feel sacred unlike any other social networking app. It’s a safe place where I can stop to smell the flowers and share that brief pause of pure bliss captured for no other reason than just beingšŸ’™

summer stories

I was recently in Japan and went to visit Kamakura for a day with my sister. There was heavy rain as we visited some temples but it soon graduated into a typhoon. All nearby busses and trains stopped running so we had to walk about 40 minutes in heavy rain and lightning to the train station. filmed most of it and put it on river as a metaphorical photo in my digital scrapbook.

i love river

this summer i got to run/hike to the summit of Black Tusk with my Dad, almost exactly one year since he had a brain injury and had to relearn how to walk. it was really special. we both sat in the creek together after and had a coke.

I LOVE RIVER

River is like a shared diary that’s both intimate and anonymous, it’s so exciting and freeing and refreshing. It feels like going back to a simpler time in the internet (with the added bonus that it’s just a beautifully designed app)

I’m excited to see how River develops as a community and I love how interactive it is and that a community exists off-screen too :)

You guys are going it right <3

River runs cold

The work for this app was done well and excited to share how this project will transform in the near future. My favorite memory this summer was going to the beach at Big Sur. It felt like a dream I never had to sleep to feel.

roadtrip

of all the memories of summer my favorite of all was the month of roadtrips all along the east coast with my partner. album after album, the whizzing air past the rolled down windows. getting sad yet excited as we left one city for the next. though many moments this is my favorite memory of summer.
i found river on this roadtrip and it felt like the perfect place to share all the moments that made up this memory.

My Favorite App

I dropped my phone in a river in Switzerland last week, and all I could think about was how I couldn’t post & scroll on river. /srs

if you not on river wyd

i wake up and get on river, i gts thinking about river, i eat sleep and breathe river. river connects so deeply to a part of my brain i didnt know was there.

Social media is dead, long live river

I like the dms now

Solid

Love using it when im on public transportation

This app is sick

Breath of fresh, non self-promoting air in the suffocating social media world.

A New Relationship with Social Media

Traditional social media has become so one dimensional! Every post is either promotional or contributing to a this singular image people have developed for themselves. River feels like an opportunity to express the full picture.

Nostalgic

Reminds me of early tumblr/instagram. Thank you :)

Excellent

Have been enjoying the experience — feels like a breath of fresh air

Unique

This is awesome !
