User Reviews and Ratings

★★☆☆☆ Loved it before ads
The pop up ads are ridiculous and make this app almost unusable now, coming from someone who loved the app before and is top of the leaderboard for their school in yak karma this is such a disappointment!
★★☆☆☆ Bias moderators
I like the fact that this app is anonymous. But I’ve noticed the left leaners post hateful/harassment/violent things. But if someone says anything mild as a conservative/rightwing- expect to get temporarily banned. The type of stuff I’ve been banned for is ridiculous, compared to the stuff I’ve seen from others. I’m considering deleting the app.
★★☆☆☆ Broken charecter count.
I’m within my limit of letters in my post. So much so that I’m not even allowed to put any more. So I settled for what I had and it still went over even though it said I was within the character limit? I was allowed one more character, so I put one more character. But the post is too long..? Help me understand why you have a character limit set more than the in app limit? This makes absolutely no sense to me.
★★☆☆☆ Bad log out service
I logged out of my account because I couldn’t delete one of my communities. Now I wanted to make a new account to add my current college, however I am not receiving the code that is necessary to log back in. I am stuck not being able to use this app.
★★☆☆☆ BUG: Post button hidden on iphone SE 2
a recent update hid the post button to the right of the replies and dms switches. That panel is too big so the post button is off on the right side of the screen.
