This app, as well as the website on PC, is so unbearably slow that it has frozen my phone and dragged my PC's speed to an absolute crawl just by being open. I've done everything from clearing the cache on phone and PC, to uninstalling & reinstalling (or shutting off my PC), to fix the issue; and nothing fixes the issue, but the fact that it's happening to multiple people everywhere on multiple devices already shows the issue is not on my end.

utter nonsense! I've tried time and time again to adjust my app settings to allow for new messages from people, and time again when I try refreshing to see if new messages pop up, it's "unable to work- but not your fault!" which is entirely unhelpful. the help center is useless with answers, I've allowed the option to be messaged, and despite seeing multiple requests for messages, I see no one! nothing! I'm at a loss. trying to talk to new people to make friends, and this app just won't work.

I don't know what's going on, but X is buggier than hell for over a month and it's almost April! also, what's with all the unwanted ads being spammed all over timelines and even in comments!? you expect people to pay to go live on here!? Even Facebook isn't that greedy!! but there's also issues with your message section, it tells me there's (99) message request but nothing. Also I've blocked people from messaging me but they keep showing up! fix these problems and I'll give a you a few ⭐'s!
