Greta McAnany believes that young people deserve to have an area to express themselves and explore their identity. That’s why he co-founded Blue Fever, an online platform designed to foster inclusion and create a non-judgmental area where young people can be themselves. .
Growing up, Greta occasionally wanted to have an older sister who could simply recommend her. He created Blue Fever to provide a space for other young people to seek recommendations and advice from others who know what they are going through. “The blue fever started because when I was little, I looked for an older sister. It was like my ideal,” Greta told In The Know. just help me know that I wasn’t alone and that it was enough and I really don’t think I had the words at the time, but help me build my basic layer of identity.
Blue Fever is designed to provide recommendations on everything from primary life events to everyday emotions. “I like to believe that Blue Fever is a universe of thematic communities and every network is a newspaper, and those newspapers have other themes, so it can be like, a feeling you feel right now, like unhappy, under pressure, or happy, or it can be anything you’re looking to do, or it can be just a lifetime occasion you’re going through, like converting my pronouns, coming out, going back to school,” Greta explains. “So you have all those other thematic communities for all those other parts of yourself. “
Community members can make a contribution to Blue Fever by creating multimedia pages in the newspaper. “”Greta says. ” Blue guides you based on how you feel, what you’ve expressed, to a resource that’s useful to you at the time. “
While Blue Fever encourages users to interact with each other, Greta notes that it’s not about social media in the classic sense. “We call Blue Fever an emotional media platform, not a social media platform,” Greta says. they are a platform for building healthy identities and that we are educating our set of rules so that they have emotional relevance, which essentially means thinking about what you want as a human being, what will advise you and make you the most productive thing about yourself?”
Greta believes that social media can be a poisonous and stressful area for young people. She needs Blue Fever to be the antidote to this intoxication. “and trolling, and then it can be much more insidious like FOMO or compared to other people’s perfectly edited bodies or faces or just the general environment,” he explains. “We are here to compete with social media, we are here to be complementary, we are here to be others and serve another purpose. I think there are a lot of reactive solutions, but what we want most are proactive solutions.
Ultimately, Blue Fever is all about community. Greta is thrilled that users help build the platform by interacting with each other and creating multimedia pages that others can relate to. “The Blue Fever experience is hard to see all those parts of other people and then see yourself in all those other people,” Greta told In The Know. “Many other people think that the utility of generation is just one component of life and we are moving into this new phase of the web that is about community. , expression and our emotional and genuine self. “
The message This platform has a project to help other young people build healthy identities and foster inclusion was first published in In The Know.
