I have a garmin and log all my miles through the garmin app. My watch is a very basic model which shows pace and after most runs I review the data but don't often go back to it. I see most of my running friends weekly and don't really care about their progress or training status but many of them insist I get strava.
What advantages does it have over garmin connect?
“My watch is a very basic model....”
A GPS watch by definition is not a basic model.
A basic model would be one of those old Casios or a Timex. Start, Stop, Lap if you’re lucky. No GPS. I never had a GPS watch when I was running competitively.

What I meant by basic waa that I don't have heart rate, vo2max, race prediction. I don't even use the lap button it has and sometimes adjust my target pace just to make it easier to calculate.
I did install strava tonight just to see but will probably get rid of it by the end of the weekend. I live in a small city and most of the segments are pretty soft.
