Amino is like a network of communities where people can create and join all sorts of fandom’s and communities of the things they love, as well as connect with new people who have the same interests as them. Amino also allows for users to create their own communities based on their loves and interests.
Amino initially launched in 2014 with only just 47 communities available, but in 2016 with the launch of the Amino Community Manager app that allows users to create their own Amino communities, the number of communities on Amino had skyrocketed to over 2.5 million, with some of the biggest Amino communities having from 50,000 to over a million members.
Inside of an Amino community, users can make post related to the thing that said community is about, as well as share pictures and art, and also being able to create quizzes and polls. Much like other social media platforms, users can also like other users posts within their community, as well as leave comments on them. One thing that Amino dose quite differently compared to other social media platforms is that people can tip coins that they’ve bought or earned to other users for their posts.
Pros: Amino allows people to connect with many people that share the same interests as each other with its many communities that centre around all different topics, fandoms, hobbies, interests etc, and it also gives its users the power to create their own communities on amino, so if they cant find a community centered a certain topic, then they can make it.
Cons: with every user having the ability to create their own communities on Amino, you’ll likely find multiple communities that revolve around the same topic, which could seem unnecessary to some people, and allot of communities made by users have very little members, and are often inactive.
