The internet,
with feet.
Hubs are small communities organised around a shared interest, neighbourhood, or activity. Most of them also gather in person — at a park, a café, a cemetery, a print review night. The phone gets you there. After that, you put it away.
A club, basically.
Smaller than a feed. Looser than a Discord. Closer to a Sunday walking group with a notice board.
Tight by default
Hubs cap themselves around fifty to a couple thousand members. When a hub gets too big, it splits — usually by neighbourhood or sub-interest.
One moment still applies
You don’t post more inside a hub. Your daily moment can be tagged to a hub if it fits, or not.
An organiser
Every hub has one or two real people running it. Not a brand. Not an algorithm. A person you can introduce yourself to.
Already happening.
A small sample of what’s been shaped during our internal alpha. About four hundred hubs are queued to open with the private beta in June, across fourteen cities.

If there’s not one for what you’re into,
start it.
Hubs are free to create with a Moment+ subscription. Here’s how it goes.
It’s a club,
not a feed.
If that sounds like the kind of thing you’d enjoy, the waitlist’s open.
