It is with mixed emotions that I announce that YouPlanets will be pausing its operations. This decision was not made lightly, and it comes after considerable thought and reflection on the journey we’ve shared together.
YouPlanets was born from a vision to create a unique platform that brought people together through shared interests, fostering connections across the globe. We set out to build a community where exploration, creativity, and meaningful interactions could thrive. From the very beginning, our mission was to empower creators around the world by providing a platform where they could share their passions, build communities, and thrive in the creator economy.
Over the years, we’ve achieved remarkable milestones. We built a platform that not only facilitated connections but also encouraged users to express themselves in ways that felt authentic and true. The enthusiasm and creativity of the team have been nothing short of inspiring. Your contributions have been the heart and soul of YouPlanets, and for that, I am deeply grateful.
However, as with all journeys, there comes a time when we must look ahead and consider the best path forward. The landscape of technology and social interaction is constantly evolving, and after much consideration, I have decided that it is time to pause the operations of YouPlanets.
This decision does not diminish the incredible achievements we’ve made together. Rather, it reflects a recognition of the changing tides and a commitment to ensuring that our legacy is one of innovation and impact. As part of this commitment, I am pleased to announce that we will be open-sourcing all of YouPlanets' code. By doing so, we hope that our work will continue to inspire and empower creators, developers, and communities around the world, even as YouPlanets takes this pause.
As we prepare to pause operations, I want to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you for being a part of this journey. Your passion and support have been the driving force behind everything we’ve accomplished.
Thank you for being a part of YouPlanets. Though we say farewell for now, the spirit of innovation and creativity that we’ve fostered here will live on in the projects and endeavors we pursue in the future.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Jalen Fu
Co-Founder, YouPlanets
