I'm not grammar expert but I believe it should be "Chat with people you disagree with" 🤓
Arun
@erickbarron86 I guess you're right there. ;)
Marwan
@erickbarron86 you're right hahaha I'll be updating that. Thanks. (I triple checked my reply for grammar issues 😉) EDIT: I updated it now

@erickbarron86 Chat with people with whom you disagree

@erickbarron86 sounds dumb (and shouldn't be used) but follows the 'don't end with a preposition rule'

This is a really good idea but sometimes talking to fanatic people is like talking to a wall. By the way, congratulations on the release!
Marwan
@janva255 thanks! Yeah but my guess is fanatic people won't go through the effort of downloading it. Hopefully it'll have more open-minded people than not. For now you can terminate chats. Let me know if you have any suggestions 😄
Marwan
Hi, I'm Marawan, co-maker of Burst. Our goal is to build an app that connects you to people outside your social filter bubble. It's important to see both sides of the story from people just like you, and to realise that deep down you have more in common than you expected. We'll be here all day to answer any questions you may have. This is our first big app and any feedback is appreciated. 😄
Arun
@marawan_1997 Love this idea! When is it coming to Android?

@marawan_1997 @arunsathiya Thanks, Arun. We have a rough Android version but since we're only two people working on this we decided to focus on iOS for the time being. We're planning to start working on the Android version soon though. 🚀
Arun
@marawan_1997 @karimalsaka cannot wait to see it!

This is an incredibly powerful idea, and I like the playful feel of the app (makes it feel more like a chat then a confrontation). Really stunning job, guys!! Would love to give better feedback, but y'all gotta show Android some love 😁😁😁
Marwan
@jordan_rohrlich thanks a lot man this means a lot to us 😁 we’d love to give Android some love trust me hahaha we already started work on the Android version and I’ll let you know as soon as it’s out! 🚀

This reminds me of the Monty Python where a man goes in to buy an argument 😄 But seriously, I love all chat products and at a timelike this we've never needed to embrace diverse viewpoints and human discourse more 👍
Marwan
@arieljalali haha yeah I watched that today and it cracked me up 😆 thanks!
Nivi Jasa
Cool idea! It's pretty much what I miss every time I post something on Facebook. I try to discuss about topics but apparently most of my friends are on my same page. I'll give it a try!! ✌🏼
Marwan
@nivi_jasa thanks! Yeah I feel the same on Twitter. All my friends are on the same page as me and I know I'm missing out on a more complete picture of the situation. I really hope you like it, let us know if you have any feedback! 😁

@pavelmoskalev13 Hey, I'm glad our idea appeals to you. When it comes to fanatics we feel like most of them won't bother downloading an app like this, but to make sure that doesn't become an issue we're thinking about ways to identify and block them.
Noah Kim
@pavelmoskalev13 Fanatic is a relative concept, no? I think that logic in this context is often backwards. As humans, we assume people are "fanatics" coming into a conversation, because we were unable to change their minds. When in reality, we assume everyone is normal until the point we realize they happen not to agree with us. Then we label them as fanatics. IMO, one of the biggest problems in our modern culture (specifically in the U.S.). Doesn't matter what side you come from, there's plenty of people like this on all sides.
