Basement allows users to only add up to 20 friends on the network. On Basement, there are no filters or influencers. The hope is that users share with the people they actually want to share with.
@unnamedteam Hey Ingvar! Sorry we don't have international numbers at the moment! This is without a doubt the most requested feature, and I promise I'll get it up soon :)
@jakecrump@igoruphere Hey Igor – Totally fair concern to have, but I can assure you we didn't ask for any fake comments. I'm only now getting around to commenting myself (sad I missed the original rush of the PH launch!) It would be pretty silly (and malicious) to ask like 2 people to post spammy comments on a PH thread.

Hope this works out! Confused why this was not built with something like React Native to scale effectively from the start?
@jaceperry Great point here, Jace. We actually are using RN, just having a few small problems with certain Android modules (camera, video recording, etc). That said, we're going to have Android up super soon!!
Thanks for hunting us @ferminrp!
So cool to be on PH. Apologies for not joining the discussion earlier, I was at demo day when it first went up.
Quick context – Basement is a social network for connecting with your close friends. Rather than see content from people you hardly know and worry about who sees what you post, on Basement, you're only interacting with people you actually care about. The ultimate goal is to create a social network with the intimacy and feel of a chat. Our basic thinking behind it – if social networks were optimized for conversations with close friends rather than maximizing your follower count, they could actually be a great way to maintain relationships.
We started working on Basement about 3 months ago, so the product is still quite early and we have some key things to add (Android app, international support). Really appreciate your questions / feedback to help us make it amazing!

I am not sure what friend groups are 100% iOS, not very useful until there is an Android app
Pros:Looks beautiful and a nice alternative to Facebook/Instagram for close friend groups
Cons:No Android app
