Please don't treat any algorithms as God. Algorithms follow their programming and can make mistakes. We want human support to be human, capable of overriding mistakes, not a blind advocate to the algorithm.

Relationships fade when sharing stops. It’s not time that kills connection, it’s silence. Keep talking. Keep caring about. That’s how love and friendship stays alive.
Connection is still the most valuable currency especially for nomads. The next Bali won’t fix shallow conversations because when conversations stay on the surface without time, care, or follow-up, they fade. And when “connection” becomes a strategy, it turns into a sales funnel. In 2025, genuine connection is still a hard problem to solve and the one worth solving.
Why I don't live in Bali anymore
Bali used to be the nomad dream
Cheap, beautiful, full of "digital entrepreneurs"
I spent three months there in 2018
But here's why I left and never went back:
❌ Everyone's networking. Nobody's working
❌ The "community" is 90% people selling courses to each other about how to build a community
❌ Traffic is hell. Canggu is Instagram with motorbikes
❌ The visa situation is annoying
❌ And honestly? It just felt... fake
Great international food though
@SarahChieng Dm'd you our pitch deck Sarah :)
It's worth mentioning that we are as past building, our app is finished. What we are raising for is mostly for GTM.
Looking forward to knowing you 🤝🏻
We’ve all spent likes like confetti before.
If a “like” had real value, not just a number, but a signal of time, attention, care and even money. Would you give it so easily? Would you notice who gives it back?

1/ Ever noticed how people vanish mid-conversation online?
Welcome to the ghost economy, a system where disconnection costs nothing, and attention is the only currency.
6/ Imagine a social space where:
Reputation grows with kindness.
Meaningful talk earns rewards.
Ghosting feels costly emotionally and socially.
That’s what LikeAndTalk aims to build.
