Picture a map that doesn't show what happened weeks ago, but what's happening around you right now. That's Wotnware: a place to discover events, join conversations, review places and meet new people – with a few deliberate choices that protect your privacy and your attention.
A map of now
At the heart of it is the map, split into events, reviews and discussions. Events have something special about them: for any given radius, there's only ever one event at a time, anywhere in the world. If you're holding a slot, it's yours – no one else can claim it in the meantime, and everyone within that radius sees the same event in their slot that you do. How long an event lives is shaped by the community: interactions can extend or shorten its lifetime.
Most content here is intentionally temporary. It stays visible for as long as it's current and relevant, then disappears for good – along with its comments, reactions and attached media. There's no recycle bin and no recovery, but there is a map that always shows what matters right now.
Only your account, profile, settings and the friendships you've accepted stick around.
More to explore
If you're curious how it all fits together in detail, take a look here:
- How long content stays – the time limits for events, discussions, reviews, messages and media.
- Starting a conversation – why private contact always requires both people to take part.
- Becoming friends – how a lasting connection is created and what still disappears after 24 hours.
What matters to us
- Current, not archived: The map isn't a collection of old moments; it's a window into life near you – right now.
- Mutual contact: No one can send you a private message out of the blue.
- Clear consequences: When content expires or is deleted, the related data and files disappear too – completely.
