Who it is for › After university
For friendships that scattered after university
Six people who saw each other every day for three years, now in five cities and one group chat nobody writes in.
What this actually looks like
A group chat is not a friendship
A meme every few weeks is not the same as knowing what is actually happening to somebody.
You assume somebody else is in touch
Everybody assumes that. Which means nobody is.
It has been so long it feels strange
The longer the gap, the more a message feels like it needs an excuse attached.
What Ciao! does about it
One person at a time
Not the group. The deck brings up one name, and you write to that one person.
Nobody knows they are on a list
No shared state, no notifications to them, no way for anyone to find out.
Start with three
Three friends are free, so you can begin with the three you actually miss and see if it sticks.
