Toot

Written by Dan Fixes Coin-Ops on 2025-01-16 at 17:26

You've got the wall up, you've got your lunch and there's nothing good on the telly and you're too dusty to play a videogame one-handed so you figure alright more scrolling while I eat this nice baked potato, and look at that, you're out of friend stuff.

So you hit the button for Friends Of Friends. Now this is dangerous, because it sucks you in, but this shows you posts from people who you're not friends with, but you have friends in common. Sometimes you'll make a new friend here, and other times you remember why these people are at arm's length.

Some folk hit the third button, friends of friends of friends. You're glad you have to hit the button, you have to make that decision, because it's usually nicer to read a book or play a game. If you hit it enough times your phone gets warm. If you see Kevin Bacon you've gone too far.

There's also Links. Sometimes folk find an article on the web and copy the link to it on their own phone feeds. This is separated out for a reason, this app is supposed to be about what your friends are doing, not what your friends are looking at on the internet. There's another different app for that, because it really is a different thing, but some folk just want to use One App so it's here as well, whatever. You don't look at that section much but it's fun sometimes. Like multiplayer web surfing.
