Murge World vs Proxi

NOT ANOTHER CORPORATE PITCH. A letter from Seth Seigler, creator of Murge World I’m a part of the first generation raised on social media. For 20 years, I’ve watched social media promise to connect us while delivering dishonesty, disconnection, and exploitation. It made me less social, less connected, and more isolated. We learned to perform. To chase attention. To scroll past people instead of actually meeting them. I don’t believe this is as good as social can be. So I built Murge World. My dream is simple: build a social world that gives something back to your life. Discover the people, experiences, and communities around you. Be yourself without performing for an audience. Use technology to create real human connection instead of replacing it. Murge World is brand new. It’s not perfect yet. But I know what I want it to become—and what I’ll fight to protect as we grow. THE MURGE WORLD PLEDGE Your real life comes first. We don’t want to own your attention. We want to give you reasons to put your phone down and go live. You should never have to perform. Be strange. Be quiet. Be loud. Be awkward. Be passionate. Most importantly, be yourself. You don’t need an audience to belong here. Your privacy deserves respect. Location helps you discover the world around you, but you control who can see yours. As Murge World grows, I want our privacy protections to grow with it, including encryption wherever we can responsibly provide it. You are a person, not a number. Murge World was built to create value for you—not simply extract your time from you. That’s my pledge. And my entire philosophy comes down to one sentence: Your online life should make your real life better. If it doesn’t, what’s the point? UNLOCK YOUR WORLD There’s an entire world around you that you haven’t met yet. Discover people who share your interests. Find events and experiences around you. Meet people outside your existing circle. Message. Call. Video chat. Start a conversation. Make a friend. Go do something. Murge World isn’t supposed to become another place where you spend your life staring at a screen. The best thing we can do is give you a reason to put it down. THIS IS ONLY THE BEGINNING. I’m going to keep listening, building, experimenting, and fighting to make Murge World worthy of the people who choose to call it home. We’re the underdogs. And if you’re here this early, you’re building this with us. You’re not just joining another social platform. You’re helping build what social becomes next. Welcome to Murge World. Come as you are. Welcome home. — Seth Seigler
