Why market it as black owned? You're already cutting off a huge part of your potential user base.

The brotha that founded Calendly has black, white, Asian and whoever else as his users and he's making way more than he would have if he had marketed his company as black owned.

I don’t understand this from a business perspective as an investment. Is that Trump/Republican app doing well?

I mean I kinda get it, but how do you really know the users are black?

How do you go viral, which is the main draw of any major social network?

What makes this a safe space (I feel like that would be the marketing draw)? Most of the debates and dissolution and hate in my humble opinion is between our own race (gender wars, red pill stuff, c00ns vs activist etc) more than with white ppl or racists, so how does this change that?

I dunno. I kinda see it (if that Parlour thing is doing well) but I kinda don’t, since the draw of social networking to MOST people (esp younger) is the most eyeballs…this isn’t a dating app it’s a conversational/debate/informational thing.

All in all I’ll read up on it and pray for the developer to do well :smile:

I'm just thankful he didn't name it black ___
