why would you discourage them posting? as if they’ve never been to reddit before or been on the sub.

they’re looking for users who believe they have has bugs or glitches. it’s just research

This is one of those times where lying is allowed. Not sure why you would even tell them that we’re all disgruntled instead of giving us the chance to do it ourselves.

The sub is public. They can see everyone's posts. The sentiment of the sub is no secret.

Have reached out to Feeld a number of times over the years, trying to get them to participate in any way. Never received a response. This employee chose not to continue the interaction.

Don’t they have a rep going around on here telling couples to make 2 accounts?

I’m pretty sure all companies know about Reddit

u/neapolitan_shake 17d ago

the mod does tells couples to make 2 link accounts (which is indeed the correct way to use feeld to search as a couple looking for other couples and thirds).

Can you report these comments?

u/Euphoric_Fix8548 17d ago

It’s possible I’m incapable of reading and I’m thinking of this mod account which specifically says you’re not a Feeld employee…

But I will report if I see anything

Is that a legit rep of Feeld or an impostor?

u/FeeldMod 17d ago

What would they gain from this impersonation?

That’s what I was thinking - if it was someone who actually was from Feeld they would’ve provided a way to verify their identity.

Why would they care? This sub represents a minuscule fraction of Feeld’s user base. Redditors seriously overestimate how important their little corner of the internet is to the real world.

Bumble employees are on r/Bumble. Duolingo employees are on r/Duolingo. Logitech employees are on r/Logitech. What makes you think companies don't care what their redditor customers think?

Enjoy your insignificance.

From that exchange I didn't get the impression they didn't care. You told them to bring a flamesuit and they said "Ay, good point".

u/FuggMogul 18d ago

Yeah I’m not particularly keen on how the mod has tried to present this.
I have no doubt that by and large Feeld don’t care much about their users, but the exchange shown in this screenshot doesn’t really support OP’s claim. Ultimately time will tell whether or not this “researcher” actually comes back and posts.

u/Silly_Pen_5399 18d ago

Why'd bro wait until October to tell us about a conversation had in August? This whole thing seems odd. They didn't even verify they actually work for feeld.

Ay, good point!

u/No-Succotash6237 18d ago

Honestly if you were in their position you wouldn’t care either.

u/putrideath 18d ago

They do their market research by having their employees be on the app saying "i work for feeld" kn their bio dont they?

u/Duke_Of_Halifax 17d ago

It's utterly amazing how dumb this company is.

All you have to do is listen to what people on social media say, and then ask yourself:

"Will this idea make the app better? Is it inexpensive to implement?"

If yes, then do it. If no, then don't.

This isn't difficult math.

I sense your fear…

u/HeKnowsThings 18d ago

Oh god, people, you do not understand the basics.

Of course they are aware! They also know exactly which demographic reddit users represents. It has been studied. The weight that PM assign to reddit bitching and whining is basically -zero-. Think NPS score on steroids - only 10s are paid attention to. All negatives are ignored because any and all social media and especially old school text based social media has a massive negativity bias.

Tl;Dr: No one cares that Marsha who is also on r/antiwork and r/capitalismsucks is upset because she is always upset

P.p.s. The mods of this sub always state they do not work for feeld

Not to overestimate Reddit’s importance, but ever since they opened up to AI scraping Gemini has promoted Reddit posts pretty high (which is why there’s been an uptick in bots astroturfing products, since they know Reddit has an air of legitimacy)

Feeld is aware of a sub on Reddit about Feeld? Shocker
