Next Social App vs THRD

Your Social Layer for Real-World Events. NextSocial connects you to the people and moments around the events you attend. Whether it's a concert, conference, house party, or pickup game -- see what's happening, join the conversation, and relive it all later. How it works: RSVP to events. Post photos, chirps, and moments tied to those events. Discover what others are sharing at the same ones. It's social media that starts with showing up. Features: - Event-Scoped Content: Every post, photo, and chirp is tied to a real event -- giving your content context and your memories a place. - Chirps: Quick, threaded text posts about the events you're at. Think live commentary from the crowd. - Media: Share photos from events with a streamlined upload flow. Browse a quilted discover grid to see what's happening around you. - Moments: Ephemeral stories and boomerangs from your day, right from the main tab. - Discover Feed: Browse public events and content even before you RSVP. Find your next thing to attend. - AI Event Creation: Describe your event and let AI fill in the details -- schedule, recurrence, ticketing, all of it. - Profile Showcase: A redesigned profile with a showcase of up to 8 photos, drag-to-reorder, and one-tap profile picture swap. - Reactions and Messaging: Long-press to react, swipe to reply in chats, create events directly from conversations, and share invites with a tap. - Browse First, Sign Up Later: Explore the app freely. You'll only be asked to sign in when you want to post or interact. NextSocial is built around a simple idea: the best content comes from shared experiences. Stop scrolling past strangers. Start connecting at the events that matter to you. --- The main shifts from your old copy: - "Milestones" to "Events" -- the app is no longer about life milestones, it's about real-world events you attend - Passive to active -- old copy was about documenting memories; new copy is about participating in live events - Feature list reflects actual product -- chirps, media, moments, RSVP, discover, AI creation, showcase profiles - Removed features that no longer exist -- timeline view, smart reminders, milestone posting

THRD is a free membership club for creatives and entrepreneurs with Caribbean roots — the CARICOM diaspora, every member state, at home and abroad. People who've just landed, people who never left, and people building from a city far from it. If you simply love the culture, that counts too. Applying is free, membership is free with no end date, and anyone 18 or over can apply — no invitation needed. If that ever changes, you'll hear from us well before it does. The events calendar, the nation pages and The Region are open to browse without an account at all. WHAT'S INSIDE Experiences — what's on from Kingston to London, Port of Spain to Brooklyn. Most of it is somebody else's — we go looking, and every card says whose it is. Chef's tables, sunset sessions, boat days, link-ups — filter by city, by date, or the kind of night you're after. This week — every event in the next seven days, a day at a time. CARICOM nations — a page for each of the fifteen member states and the five associate members: what's on, the next carnival road, local gems, and the nation's news from The Region when there is some. You're going — every RSVP on one page. Bring up to two guests; add any night to your calendar. The chat — say you're going and, once one more member has too, that night has a chat of its own. Only the members going can read it or post in it: the plans before, the talk after. Notifications come on for the nights you're going to, and you can mute any chat from inside it. The carnival circuit — carnival is a calendar of its own and it moves through the year. See the dates across the islands and the diaspora, the bands and fetes around them, and the members planning to travel. The Region — what's moving across the Caribbean: investment, property, business and culture, filed by nation. Each one written from the source it names, stamped with the date we last looked. Stays — in South Florida, a short list of apartment buildings under Local Gems. You tour and lease with the building itself, never through THRD. The directory — members you can actually reach, a home nation on the profile if you choose one, and a conversation when it's mutual. Your card — a THRD membership card that lives in Apple Wallet. HOW IT WORKS Apply in a few minutes. A person reads it. Most people hear back within a week. There are no passwords to invent or forget — you sign in with a code we email you. A ROOM WORTH PROTECTING Everyone here was vetted, and the room is looked after. Report and Block sit on every profile and every conversation. Reports are reviewed and acted on within 24 hours. Blocking is silent by design — the person you block is never told and can never tell. And you can delete your account, and everything in it, from inside the app. Free to apply. Membership is free, with no end date. The founding cohort is forming now.
