How do I find a friend I met in person but can't reach?

Retrace the shared thing

Friendships form around a shared thing: a course, a rec league, a hostel, a volunteer shift, a coworking table. That thing usually has a roster, a group chat or an organizer. Ask the organizer to pass along a note. It's the most normal request in the world.

Mutuals are faster than search

If you have even one person in common, ask them. One "hey, do you remember the guy from Saturday" beats an hour of guessing usernames. People like connecting people.

Be the easy one to find

Half the problem is that they can't find you either. Make your own trail: follow the venue, join the group, show up to the next one. The odds go up every time you're somewhere they could be looking.

Misd, for the friends you almost made

Misd is for whoever you're hoping to find, and a friend counts. A Moment is any time you and another Misd user were at the same place at the same time, and the people you see there are the people you actually crossed paths with. Look back at the class, the game or the trip, find them, and say the thing you should have said.

Then there's Buzz, a feed from the people around you, and Clout, a local leaderboard for showing up. Both are built for finding your people, whatever that means to you.

Questions people ask

Who is Misd for?

Anyone looking to meet someone. Friends, collaborators, the running partner from the trail, someone you'd like to see again: it's open to all of it.

What if they don't have Misd?

Then the Moment isn't there, and neither is anything about them. Misd is invite-only, so the honest move is to get them a code.

Can I find someone from years ago?

Misd only knows about Moments that happened while you both had the app. For older ones, the roster and the mutuals are your route.
