I've been seeing an influx of friend making apps like 222, Timeleft, Real Roots, BE.IRL, and so many more. I do think that with the increasing use of social media, endless doomscrolling, and AI, human connection has been impacted adversely in the last decade.

Has anyone used these apps? What're your thoughts on them? Do you think the "loneliness epidemic" is really solvable by these types of apps or is there something larger at scale that needs to be done?
