And so we've created something here, which is going to be web-based for the first month, but there's an app in development.

And

Anyone who subscribed now or subscribes before June 1st will have access to the community for free.

I mean, it comes with the subscription, but after June 1st, we're breaking them apart, I believe, should this thing work.

If the whole thing catches fire, we're going to yank it and realize that social media of any sort is impossible.

But we're going to take a stab at building a community that is not
