Welcome to Retrospec™, the last social media network you will ever need. You are one of the few selected to test this exciting new platform based on our cutting-edge algorithms. Less than two hundred invitations have gone out, and membership is not currently open to the public. However, we hope you will come to see how useful Retrospec™ is, given time. We have for your use a variety of features such as text, voice, video, and image posts. We encourage you to explore our many options. Please feel free to use this post as a network mingle. Every toplevel can be considered a new post, and threadjacking is permitted. No NPC response will be given. As a reminder, everything besides uploading a profile picture and information was locked until this post. Usernames are the character's full real AU names, not aliases or chosen nicknames or usernames, and seemed to have filled themselves in; nothing characters do can change or obscure their names currently. Oddly, profile pictures still cannot be swapped out at this time, so hopefully you took a good one.

nope

it's like the stocks app...

[katsudonfatale]

The stocks app?

[browbeater]

yeah. the one no one ever uses because we can't afford stocks. but it's impossible to delete.

[katsudonfatale]

Oh! Like the ones that come pre-installed with phones sometimes, yeah.

I was wondering if it might be some kind of OS update, but if only less than 200 people were "invited"...

[browbeater]

it doesn't feel like ios, and i didn't think apple was itching to get into the social media space

weird.

[katsudonfatale]

I don't know that I can keep using this phone like this, it's too suspicious.

[browbeater]

i thought that too

but i need my phone, and i don't want to buy a new one

[katsudonfatale]

So um I just tried a thing and it was very strange and concerning and I was wondering if other people would be willing to try it too

[browbeater]

????

ok, maybe

[katsudonfatale]

Walk into a store and hand them your phone to look at... and tell them to find the app so they can delete it for you

[ And then join me in my freakout. ]

[browbeater]

why, what happens?

[katsudonfatale]

I tried it and they couldn't find the aop


and then they gave me the phone back and the app was reinstalling



but when i gave it back again they could'tn find it again!!!

[browbeater]

i guess the answer is to give away your phone

become a monk in the woods



but that's really weird, all jokes aside

[katsudonfatale]

I don't know I'mreally starting to miss flip phones right now

[browbeater]

or pagers

so while this is concerning, try to keep calm

going to flip phones is still an option, so it's not like this can follow you everywhere

[katsudonfatale]

[ Yes Yuuri you need to calm down. ]

It followed people to other phones... not their own...

[browbeater]

i sense that you might not be very calm right now

but yeah, that's weird. it did the same to me.

[katsudonfatale]

And you're not concerned?
