I love just refreshing it every time I get on this app and looking at everyone’s new recs or asks. I love that it isn’t too high traffic and you can contribute a little to each conversation :)

I try to only let myself click on the “everyone” tab when I’ve read all my friend’s recs :-) I love this app it is so earnest

I think coming on here every few days is a nice momentum bc who really needs to be on an app everyday??
I like the old Myspace vibes and the recs and the nice conversations I've gotten so far
It makes me feel like I'm using a site from a bygone era and that's the appeal that I get from it :) I usually just like to scroll my feed and post every couple of days

I virtually spend all my time on this app using the "asks" function. It's fun and satisfying to help others out with specific prompts and tasks — and I know when I have a question they'll be there for me as well!
Great to build sense of community and 1 love to offer what I can!
On the other hand, I have my criticisms of the "recs" function (if you would like to hear, i’d be happy to talk about potential feedback) but I'm fine with chilling on the "asks" for now😎

about 9/10 people are not educated on their health or what medical help they can access and how to access it. This affects overall public health as people are less likely to seek help at an earlier stage leading to more complex issues, more likely to not get vaccines or procedures due to misinformation, and more likely to make unhealthy choices overall.
Improving public health and alleviating pressure on health services starts with education. There’s a really great analogy of saving people in a river. It’s great to pull them out when they’re drowning but it’s even better to look upstream and fix the bridge they keep falling off of.
Of course it’s something the govt should invest in - educating people what symptoms to look for, what they can manage at home, and what services they can access apart from A&E and 999. But it also starts with you! like instead of panicking about a small injury and running into A&E, call 111 or walk into an urgent care! Or if you’ve got a sore throat or UTI go to a pharmacy!
I know it’s yet another thing to be literate about but it’s something that really benefits not just you but also the health system and others around you (:
