I wanted to make my first post!
My name is Sara :) when i was a kid learning how to speak I couldn’t pronounce my name and I kept introducing myself as “Zjazja“ (I guess the letters S and R were too difficult for my 5year old tongue) My mom thought that was really cute and turned it into my nickname. I’m in my 20s now and often times when she sees me she still calls me zjazja.
I love the nostalgia so I rolled with it and made it my nickname online too.
I am an illustrator and intermediate graphic designer, when I saw an ad for this app I loved how cozy the style felt and had to join in!
A lot of social media today is too business centered and focused on algorithm and engagement, this is a nice change of pace to have a little corner for yourself to share the world around u.
My goal using this app is to get out of my comfort zone of self isolation and put myself out there more.
Nice to meet u! 💛

Hello!
As I am writing this post, I am currently procrastinating on some studying that needs to be done, but lets not focus too much on that now.
i stumbled across this app, and i’m addicted. It’s not like any other social media platform. It has character, personality, and doesn’t feel like an endless void of scrolling. I am enjoying my time here and how personal it feels.
I am currently 21 years old, and i’m someone who dibble dabbles in many different hobbies And interests. From reading, to sneakers, to coffee, I have so many interests so my posts will vary. I’ll possibly focus mostly on lifestyle posts.
I can’t wait to share, and i can’t wait to write.

i'm new!! hi!! stumbled on here after seeing someone on twitter mention this in passing!! this is a very lovely place. everything has been so cruel and hateful and mean lately. you'd think given how hard life already is, warm and kind spaces like this would be more common. oh well. it does make things feel more special :)
i'm very shy, and honestly, nothing cool goes on in my life so i doubt i'd be able to rec interesting things. after struggling with my younger years, i feel like i'm only now starting to find the things i like and catching up with everyone else :o especially in terms of art and books and film and games and... everything!! this is kind of embarrassing to admit (it's okay though because anonymity is awesome), but i am only now forming a personality!! it's nice to be here though. very good vibes. lurking here is just as great because it doesn't feel like "doomscrolling"
nice to meet you all!! hello!!

Saw this on an insta ad. The app is a lil buggy and slow but I'm sure it will improve. The big thing going for this platform is obv the sincerity & simplicity, no advertising or clout chasing weirdos here (yet?), no people trying to steal your attention by gaming an algorithm
Sometimes I see pics of people tryna look hot on insta with dumb captions underneath... this person I know went on vacation, pic of beach, move on. I might heart the post cause they're my friend and I'm socially obligated, but I don't actually like it and would really rather not feed their ego cause I know they don't deserve it
This place, for now, is maybe more real and interesting. Just people writing weird shit from off the dome, maybe for themselves, maybe in hopes others will see. Keep in mind I came to this conclusion after scrolling some posts for no more than 2 mins
When bereal started it was kinda casual and simple in its approach like this, but was unfortunately too interested in growing and added a bunch of unnecessary features just to become like all the apps before it. But this place is still in its infancy and it's already all that it needs to be. I just don't know if it will stay because although people say they like sincerity, they (including me) will still find ways to optimize and control their public image over time, will show less and less of their real character
Thank you for creating this app, excited to see the social experiement unfold. Idk if I'll be posting on here that much. Cute retro UI. I like

I was hiking with my good friend when she pointed out this guy. He was clenching his little fist in an evil way. I think he was plotting something. What is he up to???
