Skoop vs Communities Cooperative

Highlights, Curated Content, Fabricated Stories, Ai Bot Accounts … What happened to staying connected with our friends? The problem with keeping in touch isn't a lack of social apps "connecting" us, it's timing. As we get older, it gets more difficult to make time for our individual interests and support our friends. We need a better way to get caught up when time allows so that we can be the friends we want to be. Welcome to Koop - Never worry again about schedules not lining up or being an inconvenience on your friends. Post updates to friends on your time and show up once, together. 1. Build your koop 2. Post skoops into a time capsule 3. At the end of a cadence, your friends can read your skoops as long as they've shared one with you 4. Respond to skoops so your friends know you've seen them Easy, right? The truth is, posting frequently is no match for posting thoughtfully.

Communities is a social network that will be a nonprofit, cooperative designed to help people connect, build community, and organize. Funded by users. Governed by the people who use and build it. No ads. No tracking. No algorithm deciding what you see. Just friends and community. Communities uses a friend model, rather than a follower model. It's a place to build connections with people you know, rather than build audiences. It currently supports long-form posts with comments and reactions. Posts can have attached photos or links. They can be public and shareable or private to your friends only. Communities also supports groups, both private and open, which can be used to organize your community. Events, local feeds, tagging, videos and more are all on the way.
