Why I Started Spicy Takes

On most social media platforms, I’m already connected to people who "know" me, so I feel restricted in how I present myself and what I post. This limits my ability to discover new people and build a true interest-based network.

What I love about new social networks is that no one has preconceived notions about me.

• I can be my authentic self without worrying about getting canceled or trolled.
• I can explore and engage with topics I might avoid on other platforms.
• This helps me connect with new people from around the world, expanding my network by letting me express different sides of my personality instead of staying in a bubble and seeing same people.

When you think about it, this kind of authenticity and freedom of expression is how the internet’s original social networks thrived.

I don’t want to see the same faces or feel pressured to keep up appearances in familiar circles. I want to expand my social graph based on a completely seperate interest graph I have.

One of my fav songs is making a comeback
