Tortilla - Your moments, all wrapped up
I wanted a simple way to share my life's moments with a small group of those that mattered to me, without using social platforms. The result is Tortilla (https://tortilla.app), a photo sharing app that is user-focused, privacy-centric, and not obsessed with user attention capture and employing dark patterns to obtain it.

Small, thoughtful, and private sharing with true family and friends... remember that version of social?
If you pine for the days before endless doom-scrolling, fearmongering, and "the algorithm," check out Tortilla.
(Beautifully done by Convex expert Allen Hartwig.)

I need to get @jamwt to start writing my marketing copy!
ahem. it has been implied that I have a certain "industry plant energy". I attempt to mostly harness this energy for good
Like a fresh blast from the past so many of us crave. Thanks for sharing. All the best with the launch!
I am getting an application error after profile creation
yeah i blew through my convex free tier. upgrading now
Hi Allen, after 10 minutes, I could never receive the OTP email to either my GMail nor my business email. Feel free to DM me if you'd like to troubleshoot
Hey Matt. I then went through my Postmark free tier 😅.
Everything should be good now.
Lesson: don’t soft launch without upgrading everything.
