Beta tester feedback on finite feeds:
"I scrolled for 3 minutes and was done. It felt... weird?"
"Then I realised I wasn't supposed to scroll for hours."
"I caught up in 5 minutes and went outside. That's the point."
Social media should be a tool for connection.
Not a trap for your attention.
Why Snugg has a finite feed:
Subscription model needs happy users.
Happy subscribers renew.
So we engineer "all caught up":
- See everything from friends
- In chronological order
- Until you're done
- Then close the app
You finish when satisfied, not exhausted.
Most social media platforms design feeds to be endless.
We made reaching the end the goal.
You see posts from friends in chronological order.
When you're caught up, you see: "All caught up! 🎉"
Then the feed ends.
You can close the app and go live your life.
