Venting, being curious and asking opinions, and random social interactions.

The original site, Experience Project, was basically a support group. It was established for people with MS, then forums were added to discuss other issues, like bereavement, etc. It began in 2006 and lasted until 2016. I was told that a couple of former EP members established Similar Worlds as its replacement. Both were about sharing ideas and feelings, often about personal struggles.

Friendships and more can happen here, but it’s not a dating site. I’ve been on EP, and then SW since 2009 and the people I’ve seen joining with the express intention of finding a romantic partner are invariably disappointed.

Philosophical discussion

For being yourself. Venting out, having fun.

Originally? - connecting people who are physically or socially disabled in some way.
Effectively? - as a responsibility free mental dump for dopamine addiction.
Rarely - as a place for people to genuinely connect

Emotionally traumatized venting

People who want to find love

Boobs is my joking answer, but it kind of true, but I don't mean the sexual kind...

Making ad revenue.

This site is what you make it

For spreading the word about how fantastic Feet are

Money laundering.

Perverts

For whatever. Very free-form.

Well like all social media this social site is made to be social...

Oh really whatever the heck the users want to use it for

Isn’t it for sending nudes and sex talk?

Making friends
