Swimply is like Airbnb for renting strangers’ backyard swimming pools. We tried it. Was it weird?

Chicago Tribune, September 22, 2022

We have grown comfortable with our so-called sharing economy. We forget that Airbnb offers us a stranger’s bed for the night (or longer). Uber puts us in a stranger’s car. Those are just the ubiquitous ones. Peerspace gets you a stranger’s backyard, barn or basketball court for a bridal shower, birthday party or bat mitzvah. Outdoorsy will loan a stranger’s RV. Sniffspot caters to dog owners in need of fenced-in lawn for off-the-leash time. JustPark rents your parking space. GetMyBoat is self-explanatory.
