What is a Rose, Bud, Thorn? Rose represents a positive highlight or notable achievement from the day, symbolizing a rewarding or joyful experience. Example: "Getting boba with friends." Bud symbolizes a future goal, anticipation, or area for growth, representing something the user is looking forward to or working toward. Example: "Excited to start learning a new skill this weekend." Thorn is a challenge, setback, or difficulty encountered during the day, representing a learning point or obstacle faced by the user. Example: "Postgrad is not going to plan." Studies show that identifying and sharing your Rose Bud Thorn within a group fosters self-reflection, community engagement, and personal growth. Our mission is to strengthen bonds within communities by creating a social network that promotes honesty and vulnerability in shared daily experiences. Post your Rose, Bud, Thorn to celebrate wins, explore new possibilities, and embrace challenges within your community! What are the Marshmallows for? Marshmallows are used to interact with posts! When you leave a roasted marshmallow as a reaction to someone’s post, you can choose how toasted your marshmallow is to reflect how you think someone is doing. Let someone know they're they're doing amazing by leaving a marshmallow perfectly golden or leave a charred marshmallow to tell someone they're cooked. Marshmallow accessories are also used in conjunction to convey your reaction to a post. Collect marshmallow accessories by posting and leveling up your Marshmallow Battle Pass. What is the Marshmallow Battle Pass? The Marshmallow Battle Pass is a seasonal, limited-time event where users can unlock unique marshmallow accessories to use as reactions on posts. Some accessories are free to earn, while others require upgrading to the paid version of the Marshmallow Battle Pass. Upgrading your Marshmallow Battle Pass gives you access to exclusive accessories, but you’ll still need to reach post milestones to unlock them. To unlock rewards, you must consistently post your Rose, Bud, Thorn reflections. Once the season ends, any unearned accessories from the event will no longer be available. Post regularly to collect all the rewards before time runs out!
