Apple just launched Apple Invites

RIP Partiful (and maybe Luma)

The sleeping giant of social

/new-york by day 🗽 /untzuntz by night 😈 Fan of eating tacos and bringing people together, often at the same time 🌮

Game on for Partiful! I think Luma (and other "professional" event platforms) will be fine though

Some of the OS-level integrations will be nice but I imagine there will be features that flop because of the closed ecosystem (Apple Music playlist?)

Eh disagree tbh, hosts just want an easy way to invite people, guests just want an easy way to RSVP

This market is not about practicality it is about vibes. 90 trillion dollar tech company will never have the right vibes for this

Wouldn’t be surprised if they add an “RSVP via link” feature to account for that

iMessage is the most used social network in the US. It becomes quite apparent when you get rid of your iPhone.

Parenting

What Apple services or apps have you left of your daily/weekly usage? 

- I’m using shared albums more or less for first time ever to share /parenting pics with family around the world. Horrible for Android users 

- I use Gmail cal never Apple cal 

- I use Meta family apps not iMessage

A lot of social products there where it’s painful or not used personally
