Can I use Offline on Android?

Not yet, and we are not sure exactly when or if it will happen.

How old do I have to be to use Offline?

You have to be 18 years of age to use Offline. We don't believe people under 18 should use social media, which we have written about here.

Does Offline cost money?

It can. If you choose to post photos or journal entries, you can upgrade using an in-app purchase. Otherwise, it's free.

What is your policy on nudity?

Nudity within the context of art, fashion, or a greater narrative, is fine and accepted. Nudity for the sake of nudity, for the sake of attention, or within the context of pornography, is not allowed. It’s not that we’re Puritans, that we want to avoid offending our advertisers (we don’t have any!), or anything like that — it’s just that we find pornography and nudity-focused content to be quite boring and uncreative. Come on, you’re better than that!

Why should I trust you?

Offline was founded, and is 100% owned, by someone who worked on social platforms for as long as they have existed. He walked away from hundreds of millions of dollars, if not more, by refusing to compromise his integrity or support the evil conglomerates that are currently obsessed with controlling the minds of society. He stood up to his “friends” and colleagues, exiled himself from an increasingly unethical and ugly technology industry, and built the product you’re looking at today.

Our history doesn’t mean you should trust us (the road to hell is paved with good intentions, as they say), but you’ll eventually learn that this isn’t some get-rich-quick-by-getting-bought-out scheme; it really, truly is an attempt to build a platform where people can interact in a more mature and beautiful manner.

Do you believe in freedom of speech?

We believe in the concept of mind-viruses, and in the dangers of digitally-facilitated contagion of bad ideas. As a result, it’s difficult for us to care more about “censorship” and “Internet freedom” than about exercising the strong editorial hand necessary to keep humans focused on creating a better, more beautiful world for themselves.

In other words, no.

Are you hiring?

We’ll post a notice on the Offline for iPhone app home screen when we’re hiring.
