Potato is the newest social network in the social media landscape. It was launched last week by a team of potato heads, and the first reviews are fryingly ecstatic.

Potato is a revolution

Potato is to horse carriages what Giza’s pyramid is to the Great Wall of China. It’s that different from all its competitors and even more from Twitter/X.

Examples:

  • Potato has only one name. Twitter/X has two, and it confuses everybody.
  • Users don’t like posts on Potato. They fry them.
  • And posts aren’t called posts. They’re called potatoes.
  • Also, you can send potatoes to other users by clicking on a potato icon. Groovy. So far, you can only send King Edward, Yukon Gold, and Kennebec potatoes, but the team is working hard to add other options. (Duke of York is next.)

Potato is love, hate, and everything in between

It’s the holy grail of holistic apps. You can do everything with it, including getting recipes for cooking…
