New feature - shield posts
How long has it been since your friends were able to speak openly?Now you can give them an easy taste of what you already have in Weave.

Social media's missing feature
We all know our world is splitting up - especially on social media. Disdain, scorn, broken friendships, estranged families. Ugly stuff, but how does the problem get fixed?It all starts with respect. That's why we're launching an entire social media platform - centered on respect.Respect between friends. Respect for our customers. Respect stacking into trust.Respect isn't a chromed plastic button pasted into the user interface. It's an integral part of Weave. It interlocks with trust and friends. End result? Unexpected magic.You can speak your mind - without risking your friends. We're building real community, learning from people we disagree with, and treasuring human quirks. Details in futu
