How About We Don't Delete Newsfeeds

My feed is gone now and that sucks! It's my favorite part of the app so please bring it back!2

It’s crazy that you removed the best feature of MFP!!!!2

It is very sad that MFP will not do anything, everybody is going to other groups to get away from MFP.

My newsfeed officially disappeared yesterday, on my 4855th day of logging in 😔 It is so sad, and looks weird not to see my friend's posts and being able to comment with words of encouragement and support!
LoseIt is where I've transitioned to, if anyone wants to look me up. It is an adjustment, and is going to be a learning experience but I think I'm going to like it! 👍3 -
Mine disappeared from the webpage a couple of days back. I turned off auto update on my app, as it was still on my Android. I haven't checked if it is still working on the phone or not. I am still unhappy, and I am still looking for options. Sadly, a newfeed/friend sort of function seems to be fairly unique to MFP. LoseIt has some social interaction, but I don't like their logging interface. Cronometer, I like for logging and for its extensive integration of my FitBit's data, but it looks to have zero social aspect.4

I update my Android app, and then the web version simultaneously removed newsfeed.1 -

I was VERY upset when you guys took away the barcode scanner and gave it to premium users only. I have stuck around and continued my health journey due to my friends and connections I have made on the community forms. I don't share my fitness journey on other social media platforms!! Why would you take away one of the helpful tools from this app?
When did they take away the barcode scanner from non-Premium users? I still have it.1 -
Also, forgot to mention that the scanner is on the FREE version of the app - so look at MyNetDiary. It’s one of the top reviewed Apps of 2024. Again, can connect fitbits and garmins and has a friends section and has a newsfeed. Also has a dietician on hand to answer questions.
I'm going to check this one out, thank you!0 -
Well, it finally happened. My News Feed has gone. 😭 I ditched 50lbs over the years here and the removal of this feature is my biggest loss to date.
I have been having a look around MyNetDiary, thanks to @daria0919's recommendation, and their community section seems pretty intuitive.1 -

I still have the newfeed button on my Android, and it still seems to be getting updates. Of course, many of the posts about people's activity are probably things they can't see since they don't have the newfeed any more.2 -
It is so dumb that they got rid of the best feature of the app. knowing you are not alone was what drew me to start using it. @Ellevated Dozens of my mfp pals have migrated over to Lose it.2

4700+ days, 123# lost, 100's of friends recommended to join the site...I was willing to stick around after Under Armor made some bad changes, but the current powers that be have really *kitten* up...30% of my friends list has deactivated and most of them have moved on to LoseIt. BECAUSE, that site has a group chat option. MFP is not the best for logging accurate workouts or food, unless you have a food scale or HRM, but i stuck with it for the comraderie....no longer. This is going to become a niche site, and I foresee layoffs of personnel and scaling back on the actual usefulness of this site. my 2 cents.5

I don't know whose idea it was to axe the news feed but it was a bad one and is not well received by us users. Bring it back!2

And posting on one of the many existing threads about this subject wasn't enough, it had to be a new topic? 🙄0

I am sad to report my Newsfeed is gone today - was there very early this morning, but is no more. Sigh.
I don't want to start somewhere else without my years of data, but I am considering it.
And I am a premium member.6 -
