Oxente App Update
Oxente will be available for iOS on April 28, 2025.
We will be updating soon.
Heyo! I'm Marcos, the creator of Oxente. If you're not familiar, Oxente is a mobile app where you write requests for kindness and reply to others. It's cute, anonymous, and moderated. It's been my side project for three months.
In the past few weeks, around 6,000 people have joined Oxente's iOS beta. It's been a privilege to have so much interest, praise, and support for my work. I got lucky with the beta launch and I'm so grateful. I don't take it lightly that I've received lots of mail like this:
I just answered a few letters and it felt so good and special. I feel needed and connected once again.
You've already contributed a serious net positive to the world with this beta.
I love this app and it has a huuuuge potential.
Why did you decide to drop everything and work at Oxente?
What the hell happened? To be transparent: I realized that I can't commit time and effort to keep many projects running. There are a few reasons:
The pandemic has convinced me to prioritize my full-time job. I believe it's where I can do the most good right now.
Moderation has taken a toll on my well-being, and I don't have time to commit to community building.
I've had some personal happenings that need my attention more.
I'm sorry to anybody disappointed by my decision. I hope you understand. 🙏
✏️ Edit February 13thOxente has only me as founder to work on the project, if anyone is interested in investing or participating I will be available to talk about the application. r/My email address!
