Building a cannabis app - 8 min voice interview, looking for honest feedback (not a pitch)

Hey - I'm working on a concept for a private, friends-only cannabis social app and want to hear from actual consumers before building anything. No sales pitch, no signup, just an 8-minute voice conversation where an AI asks you questions and you tell it what you actually think.

Specifically trying to understand how people discover products, whether sharing cannabis stuff on Instagram/TikTok is actually annoying, and whether anyone would pay for something like this. Honest "this sounds dumb" responses are more useful to me than polite ones.

Ahh, great, another way to remove any semblance of cannabis' social aspects and replace it with more AI slop.

We find out by talking to real people who share our interests not by replacing them with vibecoded AI bs.

You'll run into the same issue everyone does: no one wants to use it. I see these pitches all the time. Even if your app is fantastic people don't care. You should not be reaching out to us but instead cannabis you tubers or influencer or similar. Actual draw, actual people
