Its all about connecting with whats real with you - minus all the texting, plus all the people you know.
Let us explain.
* Taking names out of the picture. When you publish something on Blurr (everything from memes to hot takes), your followers (and only they) get your content along with how relatable theyve found you so far instead of your name/identity.
* Connecting based on relatability. With long/short swipes left or right on a friends content, youre saying exactly how much you relate to their content, literally developing relationships with every swipe.
* You can search up any of your friends and see how you two have related to each others content.
* Anonymity based on trust. When you Trust a friend on Blurr, youre saying you trust what that friend could be saying on the app (remember, their content wont have their name/username like youre used to).
* This should be reserved for those special someones on campus that you really know.
* In case you were wondering, your friends wont know you trust them until they trust you back.
* This is how we keep Blurr spam free.
* No spam from a corner of campus you dont care about. When you Follow a friend on Blurr, youre subscribing to their niche memes and hot takes, connecting with everything they publish.
* Its a good idea not to follow and trust a person at the same time.
* If you trust a friend and if their followers report them too many times, you get to decide whether their content is removed.
* Lighthearted environment. If you are not trusted by anyone or if you get untrusted by too many people, Blurr becomes an echo chamber and you cant connect with your content.
