Social media is on the decline. Instagram is all ads. No one’s posting on BeReal. TikTok is for influencers. The new place for sharing: group chats.

Wtf is bereal
It’s a breakfast food item that you pour beer over.
Bereal is great, you get a notification and take a picture, front and rear camera, that’s all you get for the day, then you can see what your friends are up to.
By far my favorite social media.
I get it but man, I’d never want to post pics of myself on the Internet for anyone to see. I also don’t think anyone would wanna see me anyway. ¯\(°_o)/¯
Default is only your friends see. You opt in to make it public.
You don’t actually have to take a photo of yourself. If you’re quick enough you can just move the front facing camera to take a photo of the ceiling.
That’s what I do on days I don’t want to take a photo of myself.
This sounds so bizarre to me. “If you’re quick enough”? What happens if you aren’t? What kind of insane, voluntary 1984-esque nightmare is this app?
I mean like you take a photo with your rear camera and once that’s taken it’ll load up your front camera to take a photo but you can move it so it doesn’t take a photo of you. Kind of like a countdown timer.
If you’re not quick enough you just don’t post a pic that day.
Prove to me you’re still alive today.
The principles are cool but none of my friend wants to bother with another social network
My thoughts exactly… This might be why nobody is posting there
We’re just to old, my niece and nephews in their teens are all using it.
I’m 24 and a lot of people in my friend circle are definitely using it. I’d say it started off niche but it’s becoming mainstream.
It’s the only social network I don’t hate right now
Give it a year or two
Must be an age thing. Mid 30’s and I can’t fathom why this is a thing based on the description in this thread. It just sounds so voluntarily invasive, like leaving your door open.
