Founder story

This started as a parent's problem.

Conflingo did not begin with a desire to build another social feed. It began with frustration about the trade-offs people are asked to accept online.

The starting point

Social media should not feel like a choice between echo chambers, irrelevant feeds, scam ads and weak moderation. People need more control over what they share and who can see it. Children and young people deserve online spaces designed with their safety in mind.

02

Why it became personal

Having children changed the question from product frustration to responsibility: what kind of social internet should the next generation grow into?

03

The answer being built

Take what existing social products do well, remove as much of what makes them feel unsafe or exhausting as possible, and give people clearer control over how they take part. Then build Earn into the way a healthier community grows.

I want to build the social platform I would feel better about my own children growing up with.
