Gentle is an app where you write requests about your worries and get (gentle) replies back from strangers. It’s cute, anonymous, and moderated.&lt;p&gt;I was inspired by:&lt;p&gt;* My disappointment in how most social media today incentivizes outrage over empathy.&lt;p&gt;* The growing trend of feel-good experiences like Kind Words, Animal Crossing, Slowly, and more.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;m interested in getting more people testing it out.

Did you design it or used a template? And how is moderation done? I assume they&amp;#x27;re very private so no person is moderating them... so a machine is doing it?
