"They named their app Spill, for “spill the tea” — meaning “speak your truth” or “gossip” — a phrase that originated in Black queer communities. It would use large fonts and have an easy template for people to build visual memes. A “like” button would be replaced with a teacup icon. And the service would be moderated, both by people and by AI algorithms trained to pick up on keywords relevant or harmful to the Black community." - @lizzalichka for @washingtonpost feat. @reignofapril @toureshow and more. 🔗 in bio

Life in big tech was good while it lasted, as Silicon Valley companies lured workers with massive salaries and stock options, nap pods and fun budgets, and, perhaps most important, the promise of stability.⁠

Rebounder Founders: They were pushed out of cushy jobs at Google, Twitter, and Meta. Now they’re building startups and embracing the risk of entrepreneurship. ⁠

In 2022, Alphonzo "Phonz" Terrell was the global head of social and editorial at Twitter until he was part of the mass layoffs following Elon Musk's acquisition of the company. Terrell and his fellow Twitter alum DeVaris Brown immediately pivoted to create their own social media platform, Spill.

After years of seeing how harmful and exploitative social media apps can be to Black and queer folks in particular, they were determined to design a space to serve and safeguard the communities that actually drive online culture.

It's easy to think of @spillmob as Black Twitter getting its own platform. And while @iphonz is devoted to maintaining the trust of its users and building more equity for them, what he really sees Spill becoming is an operating system for fandom.

Listen to Terrell's full conversation with Kc Ifeanyi at the link in bio.

AI is already changing the way we work, but the question is, are you keeping up?

Join us for Journalism in the Age of AI: Tools, Tension, and What’s Next — a real conversation on how AI is showing up in newsrooms, what tools are actually useful, and the very real balance between innovation and job security.

Tuesday, April 28th at 7PM @goldenglobefoundation we’re bringing together voices across media and tech to break it all down.

RSVP TODAY! 🚨

We’re proud to announce our partnership with professor and best-selling author Dr. Marcus Collins called “What’s The Tea: The Cultural Exploration of a Digital Black Renaissance.”  

Far too often, Black communities have been studied online from an outsider’s POV and these reports end up mistakenly influencing broader perceptions. Over the course of several months, Dr. Collins put together a landmark research project on the significance of SPILL’s platform and our unique community - a project unlike anything that has been undertaken before. Thank you to @forbesblk_ for highlighting this important work as we continue to shape culture.

The resulting paper is now available to download for free at WhatsTheTea.spill.com ☕️

What do you do when the thing you built gets taken away?

@iphonz didn’t fold. He got laid off from Twitter and instead of chasing the next job, he went after the vision. He built SPILL, a platform rooted in culture, safety, and belonging, and he did it before anyone else could see what he saw.

That’s what this episode is about.
🙏🏽The faith it takes to build without a blueprint.
🙏🏽The courage it takes to lead when the roadmap doesn’t exist yet.
🙏🏽And what becomes possible when you stop chasing clout and start building community.
