the app BeReal. just added ads. 🤦🏽♀️
might need to learn how to code to make a nostr bereal-like client
Discussion
the worst part: the ads are from facebook
Never heard of it, what is this BeReal stuff?
you get a reminder every day to post a photo of you in your life - "being real"
So it’s like social media?
Yeah, the social pressure is to keep the streak up and you see other's streak - at least thats my understanding. Never had it 💁😂
How bizarre
i don’t think the streak is as much importance, it’s more about posting right away, when the app’s countdown goes off
Ooo. Always in picture formats or with text?
it’s always in picture format, and it’s supposed to be only for your closest friends. so i have like 10 people on it, and it’s funny and cute bc you see your friends eating dinner or using the toilet lol
Ahh yes, forgot about the counte. Now i understand
It was inevitable. I remember the first time a friend showed me the app and all i was thinking was “hmmm how does this app make money?”
How prominent/annoying are they?
i was wondering that too!
they rolled out bereal accounts for companies (so i’m assuming the companies paid to be seen by users), but i guess it didn’t work bc now they have an ad almost between every post.
and they’re ugly ads lol
