Plexus is an interface for collective thinking. It's a therapeutic space for individuals to explore something that feels off or interesting. But rather than being isolated, it's a collective journal—where you pull in other community members' thinking as you go. People are sharing more vulnerable / authentic content than any social network.

Reddit is closest comparison, but no need to find the proper subreddit in Plexus. Just type about what's on your mind. We're a public benefit corp.

Made a simple notes tool that organizes itself. It finds meaningful concepts across your scattered pages of notes, and links them to each other.

Notes - Have to login with Google for now - Connections only work well in English, for now, but the meaningful-phrase detection algorithm could easily be extended to other languages, too.

I'm now working on plexus.earth instead—a tool that makes connections btw different people's notes—but figured I'd shared plexusnotes.com before moving on! Will be looking for a talented dev to maintain / take ownership of the project.

Lmk what you think!

Re:Ask HN: Where can I discuss random ideas? on Friday December 09, 2022 @12:55PM (#33924326)
I struggled with this too for a long time. Reddit was too impersonal. And Twitter... well, I have a few kinds of people who follow me (basketball friends, tech / investors, and comedy groups), and I almost never have an idea I want to share with all three. But I almost always want to share + connect through my ideas with the right

Inspired me to make a new kind of social network called Plexus (https://plexus.earth). No followers, no feed, just AI to connect people who have uncannily similar problems and ideas.
