- crtasm 6y agoMerch. Get your Yo baseball cap and coffee mug. Enjoying this line from the post: "At some level of abstraction, it’s Yo all the way down."

- hengheng 6y agoWhat would be the cost of running it? How much would it take to make it profitable?
- primitivesuave 6y agoAs you enter a bar your phone buzzes. "I just got a Yo from Heineken!" If you're not disgusted at that point by an app tracking your location to sell you things, you will probably be more likely to order a Heineken.
- mhh__ 6y agoWhen you say monetized do you mean buy a car or buy an island type money. You could definitely market it well enough to sell some merchandise or similar, it's just not going to make you a billionaire.

- jasonv 6y agoNot ads, but I'd pay not to have ads. I don't mind paying for apps. I also want a one-recipient-only chat app. I don't want to open Messages and 1) have to choose the recipient, 2) risk sending something to the wrong recipient. I'd pay for that. (Anyone want to work on a feature-opt-in [no images unless both parties opt-in to images], explicit/fixed recipient chat app?)
