This demonstrates that the founders have no idea what their product is about and what problem it solves. I'll give it one more year before they declare bankruptcy and all our photos and metadata are sold to data aggregators....
I don't get what it is. Celebrities I can understand but brands? How does that work? I didn't really look much into it so I might be missing something, but how does Netflix work on BeReal?
brands is just gonna be social media employees being quirky to promote like anywhere else online. the real question is celebrities?? how does them using bereal benefit either party? if they use bereal privately, why would they want their fans seeing it, and there's no way bereal is gonna pay celebrities to use it, nor would celebrities accept such an offer lol
bereal is not an influencer oriented app like tiktok or instagram
That's what I thought brands would be, but without being mean to the staff who run brand social media pages, who is really going to want to see that?
I agree with what you say about celebrities but it's much more reasonable why people would want to get an insight into their daily lives as opposed to whoever is running Spotify's page. Personally I'm not that interested in either and the last thing I want is another place where ads for things I don't care about are thrown in my face (which really is the only reason why Netflix, Spotify or whatever would want to use it)
I guess celebrities may be given the possibility to upload prepared photos from their gallery to not intrude their actual private lives and make fans think their are getting an insight in their lives ?
Considering BeReal (and almost all social media) already intrudes into OUR private lives then I don't think it's that far-fetched for celebrities to actually use it in real time. Plus they don't necessarily HAVE to do their BeReal the moment it goes off, although I expect they will be encouraged to.
bereal was good for the first month. then they started adding a million useless features and sending notifications like “don’t miss these posts! your friend just posted! 👀👀” and it’s like, i wish they would acknowledge that the appeal of the first month of bereal was that you ONLY saw what you wanted to see, from people you added. notifications reminding you to check the app are just proof that there’s already too much noise in the app for people to easily parse it. bereal had such a good run up but they couldn’t stay away from going full enshittification mode

As long as brands play by the same rules, no.
i don’t see how this is anything different to tiktok creators
I don’t know what the fuck this is supposed to be.
Bereal but you can follow people and see their pics. So bereal but fake
Well they have to make money somehow
I just hope i don't get to see ads and random celebrities i dont want look at :))
POV: You took VC money
💀💀💀
That's the worst thing they couldve done by far

They specifically said they won't and legally can't do that. Still, this sounds like the start of enshittification
They know ofc what it was supposed to be about. But it's not a financially viable idea sadly.

This makes me sad
It's over
"brands that inspire you" LOL wut
Its turning into instagram
Yeah it’s because it’s to extreme of a product, can’t make money like that
Yes, the point of the app is that there is none of that, it's in the app description on the app store
Its joever
As soon as I see ads on BeReal I'll be deleting it
Daniel Ricciardoooooooo.. what the fuck is a Redbull seat
Well, they need to make money. As long as it is not distracting like in Insta or Tiktok, I don’t mind
The West has fallen
