A new app called Palmsy offers a unique twist on social media by allowing users to create posts and receive fake likes without anything actually leaving their device. This anti-social social media app is designed to provide users with a curated social media experience that only exists for them. Users can import their contact list and Palmsy will fabricate likes from them, creating the illusion of social interaction. The developer, Pat Nakajima, confirmed that nothing ever leaves the device. Additionally, advanced options within the app allow users to customize the number of fake likes they receive over a specific timeframe. Palmsy presents itself as a journaling app that offers 'fake likes from real friends,' aiming to provide a dopamine hit akin to traditional social media while protecting users' privacy. With a growing concern over the impact of social media on mental health, apps like Palmsy may offer a solace for those who prefer a more controlled and private online experience. This new approach to social media reflects a broader trend of digital platforms striving to provide more authentic and selective interactions. Palmsy is available for free download on iOS 17.2 or later, offering a unique alternative to traditional social media platforms.
