A guy bought friendster.com for $30k and built an app where you can only add friends by physically tapping phones. Connections "fade" if you don't meet in a year. Sounds wholesome. Also sounds like a feature set that filters out 90% of the people who'd actually use a social network

It reads as "cute" but not sure the actual utility other than adding an unneeded digital layer to friendship lol
