Gas is an SNS that is used in the United States and Canada, and users ask positive questions prepared in advance, such as 'Who do you secretly admire?' can be answered anonymously.



'FLAME' is sent to the users selected to answer the question, and each user is immersed in the feeling that 'someone praised me' each time the number of FLAME increases.



Gas is gaining popularity, especially among high school students in the United States, and has surpassed 1 million daily active users in October 2022.




In addition, Gas developer Nikita Bier has developed an application 'tbh' with functions similar to Gas in the past, and tbh was acquired by Facebook in 2017. However, tbh ended its service in 2018.




After being acquired by Discord, Gas will continue to operate as an independent app.
