Meet Linc
Linc is an astronaut who long thought he would find happiness in a world disconnected from other people, i.e. not having to struggle through small talk or deal with the anxieties of face-to-face interaction. When Linc heard that a company was looking for an astronaut who would live alone in an experimental moon base for two years, Linc jumped at the chance.
While on the experimental base, Linc discovered that being cut off from the rest of humanity was incredibly lonely and not what Linc truly wanted.
How, then, to find a curated group of other people to connect with where you know you will have something in common, something to talk about? Having learned about Zach’s app, Linc joined the team as the user’s friend and navigator.
