Genuinely curious how it’s this bad
I (re)joined Feeld earlier this week and paid for majestic (I’m a straight cis guy and understand that’s kinda a requirement for someone like me). I know it’s always been a little glitchy/buggy and thought/was told it’s much worse for cis women who have an inordinate amount of interest/activity, but knew all that going in. Was just gonna deal with glitches every so often.
Three days in and it’s almost laughable how bad it is. After about 2 min of swiping, the profiles start freezing. They’ll reloaded in midst of liking/unliking multiple times, resulting in unwanted likes/dismissals. My phone gets very, very hot and I watch my battery plummet. Like I’m talking 1% a minute or more. I’m on a 14pro but never have had any issues like this with other apps. I’ve gone through all the recs to resolve, but don’t have to tell anyone there’s widespread frustration over the tech failures.
It’s not news, and by no means an I the first to bring it up, but I’m dumbfounded as to how it’s this bad. The company was founded over 10 years ago (~2014). There’s about 100k downloads in the iOS App Store. This isn’t some solo entrepreneur project or ai-coded startup founded 3 months ago. There’s enough alternatives that never seem to have these issues.
I doubt they’ll ever figure it out if they haven’t already, so I’m less worried about fixing everything and more curious about how/why it’s so bad.
