 <\/p>\n

We\u2019re excited to announce that Phase 1 of Sharesome\u2019s new onboarding experience is now live<\/b>!<\/p>\n

This marks the beginning of a smarter, more personalized Sharesome \u2014 one that helps you find what you\u2019re into, faster, with less noise and more pleasure.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Why We’re Doing This<\/h4><\/div>

Sharesome is a sex-positive social space \u2014 not a dating app. But when it comes to sexuality, preferences matter<\/b>. Whether you’re here to post, explore, watch, or connect, you deserve to see content and people that align with your desires.<\/b><\/p>\n

That\u2019s why we\u2019re making big changes, starting with onboarding.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s face it:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Straight users don\u2019t want to be shown gay content (and vice versa)<\/li>\n
  • A BDSM lover doesn\u2019t want to scroll through endless vanilla posts<\/li>\n
  • Fans of hentai, trans content, couples, or art deserve to find exactly what they\u2019re into \u2014 fast<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    To make that happen, we need to know who you are, what you like, and what you\u2019re here for<\/b>. That\u2019s what our new onboarding flow is designed to do.<\/p>\n<\/div>

    What\u2019s New in Phase 1<\/h4><\/div>

    We now ask you simple but powerful things when you join or revisit Sharesome:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • What brings you here? (Just browsing? Looking to connect?)<\/li>\n
    • What kind of content are you into? (Straight, gay, bisexual, trans, or something niche)<\/li>\n
    • Who are you \u2014 and what are you looking for? (We finally support couple profiles, too!)<\/li>\n
    • Where are you from? (So we can build local communities)<\/li>\n
    • Your birthday \ud83c\udf89 (We love celebrating our users!)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      By setting these preferences, we can tailor your feed<\/b> and help you discover the right communities, creators, and profiles<\/b> \u2014 without wasting your time or crossing your boundaries.<\/p>\n<\/div>

      <\/span>
      Updated Settings Section<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

      Matchmaking Is Coming Soon<\/h4><\/div>

      This isn\u2019t about swiping left or chasing hookups (though we won\u2019t judge).<\/p>\n

      It\u2019s about helping you find the right people and communities<\/b>, whether you’re into:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • Intense BDSM<\/li>\n
      • Slow, sensual vanilla vibes<\/li>\n
      • Exhibitionism<\/li>\n
      • Kinks and fetishes<\/li>\n
      • Or just meaningful conversation with like-minded folks<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        We’re building a feature that allows users to connect more meaningfully \u2014 and premium members will get early and priority access<\/b> to the matchmaking rollout.<\/p>\n<\/div>

        Premium Users Get the Edge<\/h4><\/div>

        If you’re a Premium member, here’s what you get right now:<\/p>\n

          \n
        • Boosted content reach<\/b> \u2014 your posts get prioritized in targeted feeds<\/li>\n
        • Priority access to matchmaking<\/b><\/li>\n
        • Better targeting of your audience<\/b> \u2014 leading to more likes, comments, fans, and sales (if you’re a creator)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          If you’re not Premium yet, now\u2019s the perfect time to join. The system is getting smarter, and Premium users are first in line<\/b> to benefit.<\/p>\n<\/div>

          A More Personalized Sharesome<\/h4><\/div>

          This new system helps us cut the noise, respect preferences, and celebrate diversity<\/b> in a way that\u2019s true to who you are.<\/p>\n

          We\u2019re not here to be another dating app.<\/p>\n

          We\u2019re here to be a sex-positive, consent-first community platform<\/b> where your experience is customized and your voice is heard.<\/p>\n

          So go update your settings, explore the new flow, and get ready. This is just Phase 1.<\/p>\n

          Much more is coming. And it\u2019s going to be wild.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2955,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[428,1],"tags":[446,462,503,443,445,504,444],"class_list":["post-2947","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-community","category-uncategorized","tag-ai-feed","tag-community","tag-matchmaking","tag-news-feed","tag-oc-feed","tag-onboarding","tag-quickies-feed"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.sharesome.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2947","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.sharesome.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.sharesome.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.sharesome.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.sharesome.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2947"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/blog.sharesome.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2947\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2956,"href":"https:\/\/blog.sharesome.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2947\/revisions\/2956"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.sharesome.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2955"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.sharesome.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2947"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.sharesome.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2947"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.sharesome.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2947"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
