And we found that if you went from zero ASN to one, there was an 80% chance we saw you again in the next month.

And if we got you to a four, there was an 80% chance we'd see you 22 out of the next 30 days.

And so we could actually build and innovate against that metric.

And it made sense, right?

Because if you saw...

positive feedback loops, it's like someone likes your photos, comments, you know, that's probably the biggest dopamine hit we get.

It's probably equally surprising to you how little we're seeing in social and consumer in general.

It seems like people have kind of given up on the idea that a social app could take off or be viral.

And I see them every so often.

And they'd give up for good reason because nothing's proven and nothing's working.

So I like to think first, is there latent demand?

So if just because a category doesn't exist today, it doesn't mean that we don't want it as consumers.

In fact...

The best opportunities are usually the opposite.

And I thought...

There's a latent demand.
