No dark patterns. On the record.
Glint is a couch, not a slot machine. The incumbents optimize for time-on-site at your expense — manufactured urgency, buried chronological feeds, guilt friction when you try to leave. We do the opposite, and we write it down so you can hold us to it.
Chronological is always one tap away
Newest is never buried and never silently overridden. The ranking you see is the ranking you chose — and every post can tell you why it’s where it is.
No infinite-scroll trap
Shuffle hands you a small, finite serving of good things and then stops. No bottomless well engineered to keep your thumb moving.
No manufactured urgency
No fake “trending,” no countdown timers, no streaks to protect, no manipulative notifications. Notifications, when they exist, are batched and meaningful.
No guilt on the way out
Leaving is frictionless. Closing the tab costs you nothing and nags you about nothing.
Your feed, your controls
Mute any tag, hit Show less on anything, dim what you’ve already seen. Agency over your feed — not an algorithm deciding what’s good for engagement.
Calm by default
Ad-free. Dark by default. No injected interruptions. No adult content, ever — it’s removed, not gated or blurred.
Optional: a gentle nudge
Want a quiet reminder after a while? It’s entirely your call — off unless you turn it on.
