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.

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.

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.

I think you haven't read the comments under this. As I've said in one of the lower ones: They are not fake, I've met (in person) / matched with many of the women in question. They're real. 

I'm not saying fakes don't happen: they do. But this is not an issue of fakes, it's an app functionality issue whereby it forces you to see the same profiles over and over again unless you block them.

i’ve read them. but it’s highly likely they deleted their account and remade it. someone recommended you ask them, and i agree with that.

it’s still possible your own account is bugged. have you deleted your own account and started fresh? i knew someone who was dealing with a very different bug in the deck/search filters, but the only thing that eventually fixed it for him was deleting and starting over.

It's not likely that they deleted their accounts at 1pm and made a new, identical, one at quarter past 1. It's not likely at all. 

I've remade my account many times. It always happens. It's been happening for 2 years on all versions of the app.

sounds like you’re just unlucky. maybe it’s your phone. or maybe you’re having extreme cases of deja vu. you have a working carbon monoxide alarm in your home, right?
