Flipboard: The Social Magazine - Latest Quality Issues

🛑🛑 Too bad 🫷🫷
No more interest except to read article titles and truncated articles full of ads and I'm not even talking about the comments of neuneus and pro-Russian trolls, far right it has become a garbage can like the US, garbage meeting an evolution equal to X 🔫🔫

Censoring comments is now a think
Use to like this platform until they began erasing censoring and banning comments that some nerd in an office didn't like …. Embarrassing

Dark mode
Dark mode is a joke. Incredibly bright white lights between screens, even in open. Either support dark mode or don't but done claim you do currently.

Magazines are missing
In the last two weeks, I've had issues where my magazines have disappeared. They will come back but today, they are missing again.

Terrible AI algorithms
This app continues to amaze me at how poor are the algorithms they use. I told them I don't want obituaries but still get them. When I ask to see less of a post, the algorithm usually lists non-reasons for why I downgraded the post. I live in the Midwest but it seems obsessed with sending me local news from Pennsylvania and New Mexico. If I downgrade something I seem to get more of it, like soccer and Australian rugby. I want news I want not what the “enthusiasts” want.

More and more pubs
More and more ads, less and less information. Unwanted magazine subscriptions without asking for consent (hundreds). From distressing slowness (10s to turn a page even on an iPad Pro [phone]. And now pages of ads in between the headlines. Google News is eyeing me.

NOTHING BUT A CASH GRAB
Every single news story has multiple pop-up ads that block the story until you delete them. At least half of the ‘articles' are actually advertisements made to look like real news stories. Flipboard lost sight of being a news site long ago when they realized they could monetize it. Now it is just an annoying pop-up commercial advertising app. Less than 25% of its content is real news. STAY AWAY!!

Crashes all the time now
It used to be great but it crashes all the time now. I'm on an iPhone 16 Pro Max

Unusable on IOS
Been using this app for as long as I remember, can't use it anymore the so called boards that crash every time I want to open one, it seems the developers are aware but not really interested to fix it because it has been roughly more than six months. More and more paywalls as well, overall a fun app that could have been great but is just another app among others.
