I have thought the same but been in and out all day.

You haven't given anyone reason to block or mute you, so I doubt that is the case.
I noticed that a lot of the people that I responded to their posts often - I just do not see them as much even though they are still active.
I normally try to avoid going to their profile because people on here are so fickle that they will sometimes block just for looking at it.
Maybe this algorithm is set up to steer us away from those we converse with the most often.
I have an alt that I never post from, sometimes I log into that one and it is an entirely different SW.
I mostly focus on the conversations rather than 'who is who" because people block way too quickly anyways.

@HoeBag it is so weird how people block you for looking at their profile when there's no other way to interact.
It seems like the algorithm is really screwed up. I rarely see people I follow or am friends with. Yet I'll see the same catfish posts for days.

@ScreamingFox I think a lot of us regulars have the same concerns.
"Did my friends mute/block me? Why do I not see their posts? Am I shadow banned?"
It is none of that. Nobody is real happy with how this feed works.
As far as people blocking just for looking at their profile, I do not know how often that happens, but have read stories on here about it.
I think on or off line, we all feel "left out" at times. People deal with it in different ways. Some people basically "Shut down" or online they just block everyone. Like trying to get even.
I think ultimately that social media that works like this is just trying to sow resentment among people.
Crap thing is, hostility seems to be a big selling point in the media.

If I didn’t make my regular rounds through Forums, I’d see the same few people all day. It can be hard on a girl’s self esteem.
@OlderSometimesWiser aweeeeee :(

The site does seem a bit slower in my feed, so maybe. Or everyone is just busy right now doing something else.
But you didn’t scare them away.

@BillyMack Yeah weekends are slow, people are out boogying. Just seems like I'm being filtered out somehow. I hate the algorithm. I miss it being chronological so much.
BillyMack · 46-50, M
@ScreamingFox yeah that I don’t know. I prefer to hit the “new” tab instead of the top or home pages.
But I also have it set to my groups so unless I interact with people a good bit, I tend to miss out on some things. That’s not a bad thing most of the time but makes it feel slow

The algorithm does seem to keep a lot of people out of my feed. I get a lot of the same people, even ones I don't want to interact with
I think people are busy tonight.
ScreamingFox · 41-45, F
@Bexsy it's felt this way a few weeks. Usually weekends are quieter, but it's just been weirdly slow yet people randomly pop up as responding to other posts. Thought maybe the algorithm was getting worse lol
@ScreamingFox it could be, i honestly thought i was on ignore lol
In lieu of your favs, I'm here! 😜
@NudasPriest present and accounted for
ScreamingFox · 41-45, F
@NudasPriest that is not what I meant, either of you 😒 @Bexsy
@ScreamingFox i know lol
Livingwell · 61-69, M
Well.. some are still here for you. 🤗🤗🤗
SwampFlower · 31-35, F
I get one or two posts at the top within the last few hours and everything else is a week or two old. This is regardless of setting
ScreamingFox · 41-45, F
@SwampFlower I miss when it was chronological. It made much more sense.
SwampFlower · 31-35, F
@ScreamingFox literally no one likes the feed anymore yet they refuse to revert it back lol
ChiefJustWalks · 26-30
@SwampFlower saaaame that happens to me so often & I get annoyed so I don't even bother scrolling then I log off 🤷
(waves) 👋🏻👋🏻

@AllycatAD hello
I think it's either the changing of algorithms or people are just busy. Possibly both.

Return to yourself. Ground.
thepeculiarpanda · 36-40, M
The site has been feeling more dead than usual lately. 🤔
ScreamingFox · 41-45, F
@thepeculiarpanda I see people pop up, but no interaction...
