    Hey MFP, here's a suggestion for you ~ give us back our newsfeed!! So many people used it daily to connect with their friends. It's wasn't a "rarely used feature" as stated in a recent comment by one of your employees. Bring it back, be a hero and save the day for those of us who have loved you in the past and are currently disappointed and pissed!

    Apparently Mgmt is monitoring this group! As I was scrolling down through comments, reading and hitting Like, Inspiring, Insightful options… something happened! It went from multiple selections to only allowing one selection! It gets better! All of my previous Likes, etc, disappeared! Gone! Like I never responded! They are rigging the Books so the Powers That Be don’t see the real numbers! The reports will show the response numbers they “want to see”, not what they actually are! Absolutely disgusting! This message will probably disappear too!

    That's never been a thing here. Ever. You've only ever been allowed to choose one reaction option. I've been here since 2011, so I feel confident speaking on that. Please don't create conspiracy theories. It doesn't do anything to help the people who are already upset about the Newsfeed removal. Maybe you are confusing that ability with one from another forum? And I second what Lietchi and Ann have said.

    Who cares that it is old software? Only MFP apparently. It’s so helpful to have the newsfeed and I would like to keep mine.

    Can new software not be implemented to create a wall or ticker or whatever name you want to give a new Newsfeed?? Fine if it was becoming obsolete and difficult to maintain, we get that, but replace it please with something functionally similar.

    I don't know why they are asking for feedback, after deleting the one thing we all really want. :( If they won't give us a Newsfeed, then why would they listen to any other suggestion?
    I bet it's a ploy to take a couple of those ideas and say, "Hey, look! We listened to your feedback!" but really it's going to be an empty gesture to try to shut us up about the only thing we want back.

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

    I agree with the majority of comments.
    After more than ten years, there seems little point in logging on any more.
    Maybe they are getting too much money from advertising and want to loose some, give it a good while and advertisers will realise they are getting less hits, but as that will take time, it will be too late to reverse it.

    The only reason they ask for feedback and ideas is to see if there are any good ideas they didn't think of, it is obviously not to get the opinion of members, that clearly counts for nothing.

    Going to look at alternatives now, left with no choice.

    I won’t renew my subscription without it. I lost my way of communicating with friends on here and many have left. Makes me sad.

    Was the other very large thread “Save our MFP Newsfeed “ started by @Spaff_luceat_lux_vestra_BSB deleted by MFP?

    It’s had a few hundred replies and 102 upvotes. It disappeared.

    Mods
    @Betty @durden - was this thread deleted?

    Instead of sending private messages to members who have been around for 4879 days✋️🙄 IN A ROW, telling them not to post their email address, let's BRING BACK THE NEWSFEED so we have a way to contact our friends! Going thru the community pages, looking for my support system, just AIN'T WORKING for me!!!
