Read full descriptionHide full description
Blybahn is a new European social media app. You share your favourite moments with family and friends, in private groups that you create yourself. No algorithm that decides what you see, but attention for one anothr. Instead of giving likes, you send a sticky: a handwritten or drawn note that's truly personal. And the feed has a clear end, so you never scroll endlessly.
