where you’re heard
A social app where everyone is welcome — especially those of us who typically don’t feel like we are.
Join YourHerdYourHerd is a small, quiet social app built for genuine connection — friendship first. Conversation happens in small rooms, not in feeds, follower counts, or endless noise.
It is free, and it has no ads — and that will not change. The calm is the whole point, and advertising would only fight it.
YourHerd is open to anyone. It is built, especially, with neurodivergent adults in mind — by someone who found most social apps overwhelming and wanted somewhere that felt safe to simply be.
If you have ever wanted to join a conversation but couldn’t find the door in, this was made for you. YourHerd exists for one reason: so that fewer people feel alone.
Conversations happen in small rooms with a firm limit on how many people they hold. The limit is a promise: a room meant to be small stays small. And if a room is ever full, a fresh one opens — so a newcomer is never turned away at the door.
On set evenings a host opens an event and stays for the whole thing, so you never arrive to an empty space. The public rooms are text-only between events — voice opens only during a hosted event, with a host present the whole time. Events come in two kinds, and neither is the lesser one — choose whichever suits you:
Even at a voice event, the room’s text chat stays on — so you can always take part by typing, and never have to speak before you are ready.
You decide how present anyone else is in your space — quietly mute someone, block them, or remove them from view entirely, no explanation needed.
And if something ever feels off, telling us is easy and low-pressure — a real person reads every report, and the person you report is never told it was you.
In the public rooms, only the last hour of conversation is shown — older messages quietly roll off. If you’ve ever stayed quiet because a clumsy sentence might sit there forever, re-read and remembered — here, it won’t. Say what you mean, be heard, and let the moment pass.
Direct messages stay, and the private rooms you make with people you trust can be kept too — those are conversations to come back to.
where you feel heard
Hey — I am glad that you are here.
I built this app because the existing apps were overwhelming for me and I was uncomfortable inserting myself into the conversation. If you are comfortable joining on your own, that is fantastic and you should enjoy exploring the app.
If you are like me and this feels like a lot, please come join one of our scheduled host sessions. One thing to know, so it’s not a surprise: if you join one of these sessions the host will say hello to you personally and ask you to share something about yourself or your day. We want you to talk and hope you will — but you are always free to just say “I pass.”
