hivemind is coming to Ottawa

what you'll use hivemind for in Ottawa

  • "Is the Rideau Canal open for skating today?" — real-time word during Winterlude.
  • "Where's everyone watching the Sens tonight?" — find the crowd near you.
  • "Best shawarma near me?" — the local debate, settled by poll.
  • "How long is the O-Train delay right now?" — word from people on the platform.
  • Tulip Festival plans, lost pets, and patio picks — the stuff a local feed is actually for.

anonymous, done right

No profiles, no followers, no real names. To keep that anonymity safe, posting requires a one-time, private identity verification — your information is encrypted and never shown to other users. It's 18+, actively moderated, and your location is only ever used to show you what's nearby. Read the FAQ or see how hivemind compares to other anonymous apps.
