Product Hunt Radio

Gen Z and the future of social apps


Listen Later

I'm recording from my home in San Francisco to talk to two young entrepreneurs:
Tiffany Zhong interned at Product Hunt while she was still in high school. After she finished school, she worked in venture capital before starting Zebra Intelligence, a startup helping brands and old people like myself better understand Gen Z.
Drake Rehfeld is CEO of Splish, a Y Combinator-backed company that's building social apps to make the internet more fun.
We talk about “what the kids are using these days” and all things Generation Z. We also discuss the phenomenon of “digital influencers” on Instagram, what Gen Z thinks of them, and why you would start your own. We also talk about the “finsta,” the ways that “the kids these days” are reshaping how identity works on the web, and some of the experimental social apps that don't have any of the typical social features like comments, followers or likes.
We’ll be back next week so be sure to subscribe wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts. Also, big thanks to our sponsors, Airtable, GE Ventures, Intercom and Stripe for their support.
