In Baku, 'Sağ ol da' is part of the 'Bakılı' (Baku native) identity, often associated with a relaxed, slightly 'tough' attitude. In rural areas, people might find 'Sağ ol da' a bit too 'city-slicker' or even slightly disrespectful compared to 'Allah razı olsun.' On Azerbaijani Instagram, 'Sağ ol da' is a common comment on 'story' posts to show casual support for a friend. Modern startups in Baku are more accepting of 'Sağ ol da' among colleagues, reflecting a shift toward Western-style horizontal hierarchies.
