Did Snapchat kill itself over the past 2 weeks?

I don’t use it much, but I can’t seem to find any stories at all. It seems as if they shut down all interface whatsoever. They’re really cut by like a tenth even before today.

Does anyone have any idea to interface with this piece of shite new software?

You mean to tell me you don't like Hollister, Bleacher Report, or Black Panther?

Yeah it fricking blows, a lot of my friends don’t use it anymore. Instagram stories are a pain too.

My list has certainly slowed down their Story posting activity.
If you just click on the 1st story in your chat list it'll cue up the next most recent story poster in your contact list. You can swipe to ignore it. Which is a big unwelcome change for me. I liked selecting which stories to watch then playing them straight.

It's really not THAT bad. But it's a stupid change & they should go back. But they won't.

I didn't use snap chat often but deleted it out of principle. When you try to trick me into following BS I cant stand, I bounce. I'm sure they wont miss me but company moves like that kill me

The stories are to the left now, they're intermixed with the snaps. Tap on the circles by people's name to open them.

Snapchat was already dying a slow death, but this shite update they forced on everyone just accelerated the process

I quit Facebook in 2009. I never touched Snapchat. That shite is for betas and narcissistic bitches.

No. They made a shite update but everyone was talking about it and when they put out a new update that is similar to how it used to be everyone will love it again.

But if you don’t click the picture in the left but hit the name, it just brings up their user info right?

Why would a messaging app make it so difficult to simply message your followers, categorized by most popular to least like it used to be. Literally shooting their simplicity in the foot

It’s out of greed and as I said earlier peace the app and these threads

Yes. They went the "algorithm" route. Same shite that ruined instagram.

if they don't change things quickly people are just going to use Instagram's "snapchat" feature. I only used snapchat and not insta snap given I feel like a lost millennial posting the same video on multiple platforms, but I could be making the switch soon.


I can't believe I just typed the above paragraph

I haven't had the desire to send a dick pic in some time. It is pretty bad.

If I'm not mistaken, they're changing it back on Feb. 20th due to all the negative feedback.
