Most social apps assume everyone wants the same things. AceSpace doesn't. AceSpace is a community built for asexual and aromantic spectrum people: a feed, a discover deck, and private messaging, designed around the idea that connection doesn't have to start with attraction. Some members are here for friends, some are looking for a partner, and plenty just want to be around people who get it. You never have to explain yourself before you can belong. > Free where it matters Messaging, seeing who liked you, and taking part in the community are free, and the whole app is built on that. No paywall between you and a reply. No blurred-out list of people who were interested in you. > What's inside • A community feed with threaded comments, so conversations stay easy to follow • Discover: browse member cards and Like or Pass, with no games and no countdowns • Filters that fit how ace people actually connect, including romantic orientation and desire levels • Realtime private messaging, with control over exactly who can reach you • Profiles with real room to be a person: story sections, interests, badges and custom display name colors • A Preview button that shows your profile exactly as other members see it • An active Discord community where members and the people building the app are in the same room > Your comfort comes first Moderation is taken seriously here. Sensitive content stays blurred until you choose to reveal it. Your messaging rules are enforced on our servers, not just in the interface. Blocking and reporting are one tap away, and every report is reviewed by a human. > Support us for more flair AceSpace Premium is an optional subscription supports the platform and unlocks extras: colorful display names, profile themes, advanced discover filters, more photos and profile sections, a Supporter badge, and lighter anti-spam and low-quality-content limits (higher daily caps on likes, posts, and new conversations). What it never buys is access to other members. Messaging, seeing who liked you, viewing profiles, and the community stay free for everyone. > Made with care AceSpace is built and run by a small team. The best place to reach us, or just to hang about with other members, is the AceSpace Discord, or contact us through the app.
