What better time than now to dust off the ideas in your head and turn them into words on a page? I wrote about the design principles we used at @ourcanopy to guide the decisions behind @tonic_app. What do you think? medium.com/@gabrielvaldivia/…

TONIC EDITOR'S NOTE: We'll keep it real with you, friends: You're gonna run out of things to do sooner than you think, but we'll keep putting new articles into the app. Your humble editor is technically on vacation... but they, too, have run out of things to do.

The future of consumer products is privately personalized by default and mindful of their users’ time and attention while keeping them in control of the experience. Excited to peel the curtain behind the design thinking at @ourcanopy 🙌
Very excited to announce that @gabrielvaldivia will be speaking at @front in May. I had the privilege to hear what he's doing with @tonic_app and how they're taking a unique approach to private personalization. Excited for this case study! frontutah.com/conference/spe… #frontutah

With our latest update, Tonic can now privately explain your reading personality or ‘Vibes’. You can find your Vibes in the Activity view of the app. And, just like an undecided voter, Vibes will change over time to match your changing mood and tastes.

Just blessed this essay from @mirarose88 into Tonic (The best app in human history). To me, this is the canonical Kobe take -- great piece of writing! newrepublic.com/article/1563…

Our Tonic Editor's Note for @tirhakahlove's latest in @levelmag: At this point, it's quite rare for your humble editor to find a piece of pop culture writing that is truly unique. This is one of those rare occasions. level.medium.com/how-sex-tap…

He was like, ‘You’re too little!’ And I was like, ‘Well, just put me on something!’ And so he put me on a sheep.” - Najiah Knight @PBR rider on how she got started / another human I would know nothing of except for @tonic_app @speedist @voguemagazine / tonic.app/112375982997304358…

Replying to @MilesKlee
This seems like a good time to tell you that you're probably the most frequently appearing writer we link out to in our discovery app. With critical, incisive coverage like this, the reasons why are obvious.

Lately we've become slightly obsessed with @BoothAJournal, Butler's University's lit mag. Something about clear thoughts that twist and wind like regular thoughts. Anyways, read The Invention of Bitches! tonic.app/161138261389442531…
