I'm on UpScrolled!!

At the Tech For Palestine Bay Area Summit last week where I was part of this amazing group of volunteers, I learned about UpScrolled.

A social media platform that won't shadowban me? A social media platform that's for free speech? A social media platform that's for the people? Let's go!

I can't wait to connect with you all there, Insha'Allah 😁

... Read moreHaving recently become part of the UpScrolled community, I am impressed by its clear commitment to free speech and user-friendly policies. Unlike many mainstream platforms that often restrict content or shadowban users without transparency, UpScrolled encourages open dialogue and respects users' rights to express their views. This refreshing approach not only fosters a more welcoming environment but also promotes diversity of thought. One of the key highlights of UpScrolled is its grassroots nature—originating from communities like the Tech For Palestine Bay Area Summit where volunteers rally to create technology that supports meaningful causes. Being part of this platform feels like joining a movement that prioritizes people over algorithms. The interface is intuitive and invites genuine interaction rather than engagement driven by controversial algorithms. For those who have experienced frustration with shadowbans or unfair content moderation elsewhere, UpScrolled offers a promising alternative. It also aligns well with users seeking digital spaces that uphold transparency and fairness. From my experience, it’s easy to build connections and share content without fear of being unfairly suppressed, making social media a more positive experience. If you're passionate about free speech and tired of feeling censored on bigger platforms, I wholeheartedly recommend exploring UpScrolled. It's an exciting time to be part of a social media platform built on principles of openness, respect, and community-driven values. Looking forward to connecting with more like-minded individuals who believe in the power of authentic social interaction.

How do you feel truly connected?
my partner and I decided to just hang out at home with no plans. We didn’t need to talk much sometimes we scrolled on our phones, sometimes we just stared out the window. At one point, I rested my head on their shoulder, and they held my hand without saying a word. It felt so easy and comforting, l

Since TikTok has started mass censoring our voices, you can find me here. I’m on UpScrolled now, where conversations aren’t throttled and community actually matters. If you’re looking for real dialogue, accountability, and people who refuse to be silenced, this is the space. 📲 @ChaosNCarpool

TikTok uninstalls up 150% as @UpScrolled hits #1 on the App Store. Between TikTok gutting the creator rewards program, radically changing the algorithm to separate Americans from the rest of the world, and mass censorship, ppl are fed up.

Sticky milk buns have me in a chokehold
Today, I ran to Paris Baguette inside of my local H mart to catch their sticky milk buns fresh out of the oven first thing in the morning. When I got there, they were putting out every pastry EXCEPT for the milk buns, so in an effort not to look thirsty, I sat in a nearby chair at the food court t
