Replying to @beverly_pell @duofeedapp
yes, the founder story gets it started, then the people who use it start writing the next chapters. DuoFeed feels like a hopeful answer to the “social isn’t social” problem 💜
Do you remember when I joined X?

Just hit submit to @ycombinator Winter 2026.
I built @duofeedapp – a mindful social app that helps people scroll less and connect more.
This photo? My Zoom recording 60-sec pitch 4 minutes before DEADLINE. 😱
Whether YC says yes or not, this mission is happening.

As an educator and parent, I’ve spent years helping families and students navigate technology.
But one truth kept surfacing again and again: We’re more connected than ever – yet lonelier than before.
So I decided to build something that could help.
It’s called DuoFeed, a mindful social app with two simple goals:
✨ One feed for your closest friends – real connection, not comparison.
🌎 One feed for local discovery – events, places, and people nearby who make life richer.
I’ve been building DuoFeed in public, and now I’m opening the door for you to join me.
Through my Stan Store, you can:
💬 Join our founding community (free)
🚀 Support the app’s development ($3–25/month)
🎟️ Get early access to the beta and behind-the-scenes updates
Every person who joins helps us build a healthier corner of the internet — one designed for presence, not pressure.

Contest over, I’m now building the backend for @duofeedapp with @boltdotnew
One app with two feeds. ✌️
One feed you curate for 100 friends you follow.
One feed for interests, with mindful prompts to stop endless scrolling.
What other features do you want??
Let’s build it together! 💪

Me: I’ll just check one app.
Also me: 6 apps later and 45 minutes gone.
DuoFeed: Finally, sanity.

Your best friend’s update ≠ a dancing banana ad.
That’s why we made two feeds.

Feature drop:
🟦 Curated Feed = real friends
🟪 Discovery Feed = ideas, only when you want them
