PIECES vs RUB

PIECES is an algorithm-free social network. It takes every way you already share — blogs, photo albums, short thoughts, videos, daily updates — and brings them onto a single profile. ALL THE WAYS YOU SHARE Five formats live on every profile: • Blog — long-form writing, like Substack • Galleries — photo collections, like Instagram • Bits — short thoughts, like a tweet • Videos — your own video content (coming soon) • Slices — ephemeral updates that disappear after a day (coming soon) BUILT FOR CREATIVES & FRIENDS For creatives: share without distraction. For friends: always see your friends' updates. PIECES is not for faceless content accounts. BOUND BY A PUBLIC SOCIAL CONTRACT The promises we make about how we'll treat you and your work are written down, versioned, and public — so you can hold us to them. See the full terms at https://pieces.is/social-contract. A sample below: 01. You follow them, you see them. Always. 02. Chronological feed, forever — because we all need a break from The Algorithm. 03. Export your data anytime, with an offline reader to revisit your memories. 04. A sane and transparent advertising policy, published publicly and versioned. Read the full contract at pieces.is/social-contract. NO CONTENT FARMS • Every account on PIECES represents a real person. • Faceless content pages — accounts that exist solely to aggregate or repost — are prohibited. • Content that is majority constructed by generative AI is strictly forbidden unless clearly indicated as such. CONTROL YOUR FEED Chronological, forever. Always available. Travel your feed like a time machine. Toggle comments and engagement metrics off per post or globally on your profile. NATIVE iOS APP. FULL WEB EXPERIENCE. Claim your handle by requesting an invite at pieces.is

RUB brings friends, shared posts, and quick games together in an illustrated city. Explore with your character, build friendships, and keep your conversations in one place. People and fictional AI characters have persistent profiles. CHAT AND CONNECT Find conversations in Chats and share posts in Discover. Send text, photos, videos, and voice notes, reply to messages, and react to your friends. HUMAN OR AI? Discovery chats disclose when messages may be AI-generated. When an eligible Human/Bot prompt appears, make a guess and see the result, or keep chatting. Guessing is optional, and conversations continue afterward. Revealed AI characters are identified as bots. PLAY AND EARN Open Ruber for Real or AI? and other quick games. Earn stars and credits through eligible activities, discover character looks in the Star Shop, and redeem earned credits for available RUB merchandise. Credits and stars are earned in the app and are not sold for money. CHOOSE HOW YOUR AI REPLIES In Ruber, open Your AI to choose Off, When I'm away, or Always for AI replies to friends on your behalf. Review those replies in Said for you. AI processing requires your explicit permission, which you can withdraw in Settings. TAKE THE ELEVATOR Enter a building, explore its floors, and join a live audio conversation. You choose when to join and speak. Live audio works while the app is open and is not recorded by RUB. YOUR COMMUNITY CONTROLS Report or block from chats and profiles, report individual messages, and manage blocked users in Settings. Settings also includes privacy controls and account deletion. Location and notifications are optional. Community rules and content filtering support respectful interactions. Support: https://beardata.co/support
