Can we have a dating app but for friends? Like you put your name, your age, and your interests but instead of getting an unsolicited dick pic from Michael Smith (fake name btw, if there are any Michael Smiths out there seeing this post, I'm so sorry) at 2 am, you get a picture of someone's cat asking if you're a cat person? Could we all just collectively imagine that for a second?
Like, you could make a list of your top 10 movies and your top 10 artists or songs and list your hobbies and there could be an algorithm that matches you to people with similar interests? There's no pressure to romantically impress somebody, you're literally just there to be a friend to somebody.
There could be an optional, non-interacting viewer to act as a witness and mediator if someone feels uncomfortable, and there could be arranged meeting places where the staff know what's up, and you could feel safe just making friends with people?
