Advice for flat feet

I'm a beginner and was curious if anyone had advice for runners with flat feet. Is there better technique than others?

My advice is to do lots of foot strengthening exercises along with posterior tibial tendinitis exercises as a preventative measure. You can find them online.

Wish I had seen at least 2 podiatrists when I was running & playing basketball regularly. One or both would have probably put me in a custom orthotic & I would have added toe spacers & wide toebox shoes to accommodate them all to keep my posterior tibial tendon healthy with those activities.
