From doomscroll to your people in three steps.
No onboarding marathon. No 14-screen permissions gauntlet. Claim your name, make it yours, bring your circle — then go actually talk to them.
Three steps. Roughly one coffee.
Every step here exists to get you to your people faster. Nothing exists to keep you scrolling. Big difference.
- 01
Claim your handle
wack.dev/@you
Pick the name your friends already call you. One handle, yours forever — it's your profile, your DMs, and the front door to everything you make here.
Takes about as long as it took to read this card.
- 02
Make your profile yours
Themes, links, snark cards
Pick a theme, drop your links, pin the bits that make you you. Snark cards let you answer the prompts in your own voice — no algorithm deciding which version of you the world meets.
Looks nothing like everyone else's. On purpose.
- 03
Bring your circle
Invite the group chat
Send one link to the people who actually matter — the group chat, the band, the old crew. Your Circle is home; topic Communities are how you wander wider when you want to.
A social network is only as good as who's in yours.
What changes. And what you won't miss.
Switching feels dramatic right up until you realize how much you were tolerating. Here's the trade.
The infinite scroll
A feed that ends — chronological, friends-first, then you go live your life.
Reels you never asked for
Posts from people you chose to follow. Radical, we know.
Ads wearing your data
No ads. The product is the product, not you.
Engagement-bait outrage
Quiet by default. Loud only when your people are.
The algorithm's mood swings
You decide what you see, in the order it happened.
Pokes, farms, and 2009
None of it followed you here. You're welcome.
Sensible by default. Private from the first second.
Most networks make you a public broadcast tower, then bury the off switch. We flipped it: you arrive private, and every invasive thing starts switched off. You opt in to sharing — never out of being watched.
Defaults are a value statement. These are ours.
Private by default
New account, locked doors. Your posts start visible to your Circle — not the open web, not a scraper, not your boss's cousin.
Off by default
No location tags, no read receipts you didn't ask for, no "people you may know" mining your contacts. If it's creepy, it's off until you say otherwise.
Yours to take
Export everything, any time, no dark-pattern maze. The exit is as easy as the entrance — that's how you know it's not a trap.
No tracking, full stop
No third-party trackers, no ad pixels, no shadow profile. We don't follow you around the internet because we're not building one.
Quick answers, no runaround.
Do I have to delete Facebook first?
Nope. Keep it open in another tab and watch it gather dust. wack works whether or not you've made peace with the past.
Can I bring my friends over?
That's the whole idea. One invite link drops your group chat straight into a private Circle — no re-adding everyone one painful request at a time.
Is it really free, or is the data the price?
Free, and you're not the product. No ads means no incentive to harvest you. We make money honestly — see the money page if you don't believe us.
What happens to my privacy?
You start private. Everything invasive starts off. You opt in to sharing, never out of surveillance.
Will I miss anything from the old place?
The reels, the ads, the outrage, the pokes? You'll be fine. The people? Bring them — that part comes with you.
How long does setup actually take?
Handle, theme, invite — a few minutes. Less time than you'd spend doomscrolling before bed, and a lot better for you.
Your people are one handle away.
No ads. No trackers. No reels. No kidding. Just the three steps and the good part.
