Ratings and reviews

Well, it was getting better until the UI was touched. Now, everything seems oriented around PC comfort. Because it is just a mess. Especially when trying to send pictures/videos. With the change, I can no longer go into my gallery and select stuff. It forces me to either doom scroll or use Onedrive, which is something I don't have. Some of my files just flat out refuse to show as well. Clyde is back even though everyone has the content filter off. FIX HIM!

Extrodinarily buggy mobile app, much less stable than the desktop version. Video playback is abysmal, slow and finicky. The app sometimes gets stuck in landscape mode, causing visual bugs; channels being offset to the right too far, channel list being cut off prematurely, images being misaligned. More of a chore to use most the time. Do better please, have more pride as a programmer. Update (2025): Still an abysmal product.

going off of other reviews, discords policy is just "we're altering the user experience, we *will* alter it further". honestly wild considering how unstable and buggy it is. app needs to crash periodically to run efficiently. fast internet connection is a must or good luck loading your emotes, much less text. notifications fail all the time. and it is so. painfully. slow. honestly sick of this app, I wish there was a better option, but sunk cost is a real disease.
