A quick search showed me at least 18 new posts the last hour...

...right before doing the aforementioned search my actual main feed showed me [b]two[/b] posts with a timestamp less than an hour ago before heading into the posts with 1hr timestamps.

The algorithms are shit.
That is all.

@Starcrossed Yep. Honestly, this whole "we know what you want better than you yourself know" (a.k.a. feed algorithms) schtick they are running is getting old.

@PirateMonkeyCabinet the gaslighting has been quite disgusting that's for sure. As if we're making it up, as members whom have been in this community for decade+ can certainly point out it is different than being and not working.

@Starcrossed I take it when you say decade you're also referring to the EP era. Either way you've even indeed been here plenty long enough to, as you say, point out that something is different and not working.

But yeah, the way they have handled it is absolutely atrocious. Mostly people are just being ignored, and when they aren't ignored they are either just handwaved away or the staff go on a full "we always know best because we can see things you can't" kind of rant. Heck, complain enough and they might just shadowban you from admin announcements and such too. It's the sense of disconnect and disrespect that frustrates me.

@PirateMonkeyCabinet the hand waiving is what gets me the most, especially when you see it happen to an old core member. The admins pretty much saying "f-you very much, your feedback means nothing, have a nice day thanks for your support' consistantly is going to dive this to the ground.

@Starcrossed Yeah. Looking at the changes over the last year or so and their handling of the user dissatisfaction with those changes just feels like they are trying to build a completely different site on the back of those who used to support them. Heck, it doesn't help when they write in their posts that they are interested in and care about user feedback when they handle it they way they do.
