Fizz social app’s CEO on why anon works | TechCrunch

Fizz is betting that Gen Z is tired of performing their lives on Instagram and TikTok.  

What started as a pandemic-era group chat frustration has turned into the dominant social platform on college campuses across the US, focused on the 99% of life that doesn’t make it into a highlight reel. Capturing the attention of a demographic typically glued to Instagram and TikTok, the app’s hybrid anonymous model and hyperlocal focus has made it what Solomon calls “the biggest college social app since Facebook.”  

Today we’re bringing you a conversation that Dominic Madori Davis had with Fizz’s co-founder and CEO Teddy Solomon from this year’s Disrupt, digging into why he thinks social media stopped being social.
