I'm not terribly surprised. I use it but would describe it as incompetently put together as my bank app? maybe worse, it barley functions at all. I dont know how they managed it.

It was so bad when I used it, if it wasn't bizarre memory leak or privacy issues it was extremely poorly executed UX.

Between it and Fetlife there's some huge issues with those communities just sticking with the first app that emerges regardless of quality

Given the overlap between those communities and OSS people I’m amazed no one has created a B Corp that does this stuff right.
No one migrates from the first big thing so it's a waste of time. Feeld should be killed by this and it'll barely make a dint
When I used it, I enjoyed the community, but the app was never competently written. Then a while back they had a flag day where they rolled out a new app and a new server to everyone all at once, and most people were not able to log in; those that were lost their premium perks if they were paying customers, likes and chats got lost, etc. I was never actually able to log in, and just dropped the app at that point.
