Do you have a sense for what motivates "support" users?

Already in listening through what is on there, a few people were clearly depressed, and lending support to those people is awesome, but also difficult to sustain (for any given individual).

I am not sure, but I was actually very surprised by how many supporters actually consistently came on the platform to leave supporting messages to lonely people. At one point, there were more supporters wanting to support than lonely people needing support haha

And a couple of very interesting occasions were when the people who initially reported 'lonely' decided to become 'supporters' because they wanted to give back to the community for the support they got, and wanted to help others who are in need more than themselves. I found that very touching :')

Do you plan to implement E2EE for private voice messages?

[jaybhum]

We do not have private voice messages yet. All voice messages are public, as in, everyone can listen to them. This way, people who are hesitant to speak can still listen to other people's conversations, and also learn from them.

In the near future, we plan to implement private messaging functions, which will be end-to-end encrypted. Upcoming feature! :)
