Which is weird, because if they bought a Garmin device, they already have all that built in.

Which if you've ever had a Garmin device + tried Strava, you'd realize that perhaps Strava provides additional insights on top of what Garmin provides?

Genuinely not sure what insights they provide that you don’t get out of the box from Garmin.

Genuinely weird to make statements like "they already have all that built in" if you don't even know what Strava provides, don't you think?

I’ve been using both for ~7 years so I’m pretty familiar with them…
