If your app is trying to bring people together but not necessarily to form a market, you might be better off hosting a private Discord or building a community site on top of a platform like Circle, Tribe, or Dev.to's own Forem. Communities especially are an interesting opportunity when added on top of info-products, as they give you the chance to keep your customers engaged with you between releases of new content.

Substack

Substack makes it simple for a writer to start an email newsletter that makes money from subscriptions.

If the goal of your app is to communicate something to your users, the first question to ask yourself is whether that could be better accomplished by written words or videos. Simplifying your product to an info-product like this has two big advantages. First, larger media platforms like Substack, Skillshare, Teachable, Gumroad, or even Youtube are almost guaranteed to reach a larger market than a purpose-built app or site. Second, you can often communicate your ideas and make a sellable product in drastically less time than if you were trying to capture those same ideas in the framework of an app.
