I'm building an app similar to Beli where it has personal utility, but also relies on friends posts for discovery in the feed. I know that a community app like this is extremely hard, and will face the "cold start problem", so I'm trying to get through that hurdle with some unique launch strategies.

I also feel like copying Beli's launch strategy would work, but feel a little weird copying it bar for bar.

Anyone have any experience with this they can share and/or have advice? anything helps!

tried making a matcha risotto this past week, and it wasn't as bad as it sounds. I made it cuz I wanted to piss off my friends and thought itd be fun to make

I based this idea off of ochazuke, which is a japanese dish with steamed rice and an assortment of savory ingredients and green tea poured over the top. Definitely not the same but I thought there's enough similar ingredients for it to maybe work.

Now I wouldnt say that it worked, but it defintely wasn't bad. There was an earthiness provided by the matcha that was kinda nice, but i think i overdid it with the cheese, and I could have made it sweeter.

Anyone have any funny food ideas?
