Internet culture in Oakland

The discourse, the drama, the thing everyone's suddenly doing. Decoded with people who were also there.

Internet culture moves too fast to follow alone. Peachy finds you the people who saw the original post, know why it's funny, and will explain the whole saga in three messages, on your schedule instead of the timeline's.

Oakland has always run on word of mouth, and Peachy is built for exactly that. Say you're looking in Oakland and posts from people across the town reach you, from Temescal to Fruitvale to the Lake. Say how far you'll travel and the rest of the East Bay comes with it.

Say it in your own words

You describe what you’re looking for the way you’d tell a friend, and your Feed shows the posts from your friends, mutuals and communities that match.

“Show me the big discourse. Once a day is plenty.”

“Tell me right away when something genuinely huge happens online.”

“Explain the joke everyone's suddenly making. Keep the drama out of my mornings.”

How it works

  1. Join in a minute

    Sign up with your phone number. Peachy is a chat app: your people, your group chats and your communities.

  2. Filter it, if you like

    Your Feed starts as everything, newest first. Turn on a paragraph filter, a few plain words like the examples above, place included, and only matching posts show. Turn it off any time.

  3. See what matters to you

    Your Feed shows posts from your friends, mutuals and communities: all of them, or only the ones that match your paragraph. Public posts from everyone else stay under Public, and your private chats are never part of it.

Find your people in Oakland.

Free. Just a phone number.
