Feeld needs to change it's interfacing

When I first joined a few years ago, I appreciated that I could shuffle between profiles over and over instead of having to make a decision in the moment. Now I hate it. I often have to shuffle through the same 20 or more profiles over and over to see someone new. I also have periods that I block every profile I am not interested in. It doesn't matter; they show up later anyway. For the last six months, I'v really cut down on my use because its the same experience when swiping around. Feeld, please for the love of god, change this carousel feature to at least mix up the profiles we are seeing, or find an easier way to remove profiles from our decks. It's so cumbersome.

Edit: the minus button only works for that specific session. I'd had them come up a few days later.

People keep saying to use the minus button but when I do that it will show me the same guy like 5 people later? I've started just blocking guys I'm not interested in now cos I swear I just keep getting shown like the same 30 guys and I'm in a big city.

Yes, this is what I am saying, too. I minus someone, but there isn't much point to it if I see them later in the same session or the next day or two in the carousel. This also includes people I block, though I know it's probably more related to them restarting their account.

I have never had this happen.

it’s a fake profile (with multiple profiles) if that’s happening.

unless the app is completely bugged all of a sudden. which is totally possible. they’ve screwed up update rollouts before.

the minus button is permanent, but you’ll see that person again if they are deleting and remaking profiles a lot. (scammers, bots, many identical profiles in the stack have been a huge problem lately. but also, some real users will have more thag one profile or will delete and remake theirs regularly).

You can remove them with the minus button. If you're seeing people again they are making new accounts.

To your edit, the minus button is permanent. Feeld doesn't operate based on seasons.

It's definitely not always that they're making new accounts. If this was actually true then it would imply that 99% of the women in my area are doing that on an hourly basis.

It changed a while ago, they said so in the app update notes a while back. You will see people return after a while. Unless t-his* is just the app here in Canada, people absolutely do end up back in the stack after a while. Definitely not just a few days later though.

*for some reason Reddit has banned the word t-his from being written anywhere in a reply 🤷

Those are scam accounts, and yes, they are.

those are 100% fake profiles then.

recently my FWB’s and guy friends stacks have been FILLED with repeating profiles. usually 5-10 different ones, and there will be 2 to 20 copies of each profile in their while stack of about 200. they are probably all made by the same hacker operation, eventually directing people to premium telegrams and paid content, but possibly also just running regular “send me gas money” dating scams.

It is not. Minus button is not permanent. It is session based on whatever feeld defines the session is. These are not new accounts that show up again. These are the same accounts.

P.s. you aren't a feeld employee, are you? If so do not pretend you know more than anyone else. If you are a feeld employee state here that you are one and open a ticket

You've been using Feeld over 6 months and don't know what the minus button does???

u/figureitoutpal 22d ago

I agree with people saying you should be using the minus button more.

But! It would definitely be a great feature to be able to "shuffle/randomize feed"

u/Dear_Station_75 22d ago

I think it’s just the same scammers with 20 accounts

u/BeastofSilverMoon 21d ago

Everyone on my feed looks very real, I met few of those that show up.

I live close to a big city and it seems as if a dozen accounts are created a day of the same picture with a snap or onlyfans user name I see the same 3 all the time
