    Thank you for the Community Activity Feed.

    But could we have the option to show our feed to our friends? Right now it is either public (open to everyone) or private (open to just ourselves), but I might prefer to have my Activity Feed visible to certain people.

    Thanks!

    The forum is filled with people unhappy with your decision to remove the Newsfeed.

    So, I have an idea, how about instead of just taking away a feature, you bring it back and improve it?

    Like make people able to set it as the default screen when the app is opened.

    Also, maybe actually ask members if they use a feature or not before just removing it.

    I am torn whether to just leave MFP with my over 9 year streak. Most of my long term OG friends have jumped ship to Lose It and now just have ghost accounts on here. I am torn what to do because the biggest part of MFP besides losing 200 lbs is the connection and the news feed with so many people. Many I have met in real life and many have even spilled over to my social media.

    I am new to MF and I like it but DO NOT LIKE how I have to go digging to see replies or find feeds. So from what I’m reading is I find a specific group & join or follow it.

    Hey friend! I was already on LoseIt for logging, now MFP lost me… I keep checking in to see if some kind of newsfeed comes back. So sad, I just hit 2000 days here. I think one of the LoseIt groups from here is called MFP Exodus.

    @MFP what a mistake you’re making.

    Go under your "bell" and look for replies and you can just see the replies you've done and if someone replied back.

    I tried loseit and settled on mynetdiary. Considerably more polished and functional. Feel free to join us! Trying to get the group there big and active.

    Might as well do away with the friends feature, too, at this point. Sad times.

    MFP still has the advantage of a better database and the ability to add recipes, but that's it.

    BRING BACK THE NEWSFEED! It the only reason I recommended friends to this app, so I could "like" their progress and workouts and now you took that away 😡

    Is this why the home page is so useless and meaningless now?

    I’ll be dropping my premium subscription. Why have friends on MFP if you can’t interact with them?
