i had an idea on the same spectrum, but almost opposite. i had disregarded it at some point, i think i will put it back on the list now.
i built this in Flutter so i can eventually release on iOS. however i need to buy a cloud Mac or use someone else's account. more on this later. right now i want to nail down the experience before i do Google Play and Apple App Store.
people want human connections more than anything, even though they're addicted to the rage algos. if we can facilitate that, i think we'll have successes.
Dope concept must try
please give me all of your honest feedback. i want to make this simple, easy, and fun for normies - but most of all i want this to be a completely unique experience that doesn't exist ANYWHERE else.
nevah! mobile first. only use nerds want web apps.
web apps are dogshit
I must be a nerd ๐ค
Love it so far, I was a bit confused as to why I never got a DM option but now I re read your post and see someone has to match my vibe for that to happen.
Potential feature: "open dm" vibe. People can see and send a one-off response to your vibe even if you didn't match. Could be used for soliciting advice like. "Feeling stressed, how can I unplug?". If you like their response you can dm back and open a normal dm flow
my best friends are nostr nerds <3
think of it kind of like tinder. you have to vibe with someone and they have to vibe with you to unlock DMs. you can build that relationship as time moves on by continuing to vibe with one another. your constellation lines/links grow thicker and strong as you build your relationship.
and yes, i have thought about something like this. perhaps if someone wants to talk/is open to talk they could toggle that first and foremost without having to vibe with them.
algos put our shadow on full display, but with a lack of awareness to the individual. I want a public, anonymous confessional of sorts.
Would also be cool if you could filter the auras you look to do just your follow list. Could fill the "who, among my friends, is feeling excited to go outside, feeling bored, feeling sad,, etc"
follows aren't technically a feature, though you can follow someone and interact with them on another nostr app. but perhaps some sort of future filter could be implemented. i do have light WoT now, just for spam prevention. ill think about how i could add something more. thanks for the feedback.
we've had anon apps before, and i liked them, but the UI wasn't enticing enough to bring in people. that's the key.

Aura is a very artistic and poetic app.
It connects directly to the soul. ๐ซ๐จ
Zapstore has screenshots ๐ฅน
Love the concept! ๐
Fascinating
It seems to lose my current aura often, forcing me to republish to allow me to browse others. Also shows "share your position" when I just to browse/connect with anyone and just shows button "share your aura first". Love the idea, not sure how it will play out, but it's fresh #melike
It doesn't lose your Aura, if you reopen the app you're prompted to post a new one. That wasn't my intention so I'll need to allow browsing of Auras without having to post first.
Swiping right is for local / auras near you, that's why it's asking for that.
I'll make that more clear.
Yes.
Reminds me of one of my first vibecoding projects a few kiths ago, I never published
you should have published!
cool
No. I was just dabbling. Have had other priorities. It would have required a lot of fine tuning with the idea I haven't had bandwith or budget for.
Umm, web app is mobile.
