About
Plura (formerly Bloom Community) is a United States-based social networking platform — backed by Y Combinator (W20) with $2.65 million in seed funding — providing niche, edge-of-culture communities with a social discovery and connection platform that prioritizes meaningful relationships based on shared interests, values, and cultural affinities rather than engagement-maximizing algorithmic feeds. Founded in 2019 and originally launched as Bloom Community (rebranding to Plura to reflect the platform's focus on the plural nature of identity and belonging), Plura serves creators, artists, spiritual seekers, and cultural enthusiasts who seek community-first social experiences outside the mass-market social media platforms (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok) that optimize for broad engagement over depth of connection.
