> You don’t really remember the exact month something happened, but you always remember who was there.

This is such a weird premise, I can already search photos by people on my phone or Mac, but that also lets me find photos without people in.

Not trying to be a hater, but I'm not sure if I would download an app just for this, and I'm almost 100% sure my non-tech friends and family wouldn't.

Is there a way to make this an add-on to another product that people are already on? Or a site that pulls data from another product?

Is your pricing enough for the service to make money without requiring VC funding? And are you going to be able to maintain business focus on your core use cases throughout the next 5-10 years? I think it's a tough sell for me and my friends to use something like old Facebook when we know the rest of that story.

My god, they really did recreate Facebook

Ah, see, you didn’t recreate it just because of the interface; you recreated because it’s currently a high-trust social environment, because your friends and family are using it, because they know who you are. Old Facebook was high-trust because we all were naive and trusting.

Perhaps the question is how to continue to create high-trust environments from a social perspective, not an interface perspective.

> because your friends and family are using it

No. My family was _not_ using it. The people who attended the same university were. Some of the change was when everyone had to moderate their output for different social contexts/audiences.

Old Facebook worked out great, so this should be a positive force for good as well.
As a none American I point out that WhatsApp groups have functionally replaced old Facebook for a long time.
I think this is cool! Maybe not your focus, but is there a place for using AI to help figure out who to send photos to / which pockets to send to?
What about RSS and feed readers? Where you also can read posts from the domains you think you know.
Drop the "Pic". Just "Pocket". It's cleaner.
I dunno how to tell you this but I think it looks and functions like facebook because the model you vibe coded with was probably trained on old facebook
> old FB was immensely popular

So were heroin and cocaine, which were sold commercially for 25 and 40 years, respectively

Was does the 'inherited' toggle on the main screen imply?
OT but anyone remember Diaspora? Which was supposed to be an open (source? Idr) FB. Never heard of it again after the manifesto post.
