Zoning votes, school boundaries, the intersection redesign. Surfaced while there's still time to weigh in, not recapped after the vote.
The decisions that change your commute, your kid's school, and your rent get made in meetings almost nobody attends. On Peachy, the neighbor who reads the council agenda posts what's coming, it surfaces for you, and the public comment deadline buzzes your phone with days to spare instead of arriving as a recap after the vote.
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.
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 city council and planning news in Oakland.”
“Buzz me before a public comment period closes.”
“Surface school district discussions. I've got kids in the system.”

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.
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.
