Are You Having FDS Website issues....?

ExpensiveGrace · 2022-06-23T03:00:48+00:00

I don't like the UI. It's ugly and not intuitive. Needs a dark theme too. I also dont like that option to signup to the newsletter that shows up every time I login. There should be an option to disable it. Its difficult to navigate.

Website is nearly useless, and I have basically dropped FDS which is a shame. There seem to be no new posts, and there used to be daily posts and discussions here.

I miss having the community here. I tried twice to sign up on the FDS website but it never happened so I gave up. Figured I'd just have to wing it out in the dating world.

The app is sort of better in comparison. Although the experience isn't really pleasant. (by that logic the reddit app is also useless these days) The issue I have with the site, atleast the mobile one, is the UI. Like when I select things from the drop-down menu it doesn't load the category I click on. I have to do it multiple times. Also links I click don't load and then suddenly load much later when I give up and continue reading comments etc. I'm guessing server overload? Haven't used the pc site much so can't comment on that.

I've had problems finding new posts. Maybe there just is less content being generated, but when I go to sort by new in the forum section it seems like the same stories have been showing up for at least the past few months. When I compare it to the FDS reddit experience I find it lacking. I could always find at least half a dozen daily stories on reddit that were new, written by members, and felt engaging. Even when I compare it to other female oriented websites like Reductress (which is more of a comedy/satire website) there isn't a lot of content I can easily see.

My issue with the website is that I miss the community here.

I don't want to go somewhere external to continue to learn and grow.

By moving you've killed FDS for many. Come back!

JanaBanana33 · 2022-06-24T00:42:58+00:00

Come back here! I like this community and hate the website

lithiumlolipop · 2022-06-24T21:52:47+00:00

The site is killing FDS as a comunity.

I get constant pop ups asking me to sign up for the newsletter that I can’t cancel even though I’m already signed up.

howdoilogoutt · 2022-06-23T17:25:31+00:00

I get a pop up that say subscribe and them never goes away. Seems you can't post comments like on Reddit so more like reading articles.

feetlips · 2022-06-23T11:20:47+00:00

May be off topic but I can't find the handbook on the website, and links to the handbook on Reddit appear to be dead

Ok-Yogurtcloset3467 · 2022-06-25T13:09:06+00:00

I miss having FDS on here. And I miss this community

Bum_Farmer · 2022-06-24T05:11:21+00:00

It’s sad to see you all go. ‘Twas entertaining.

Acceptable_Goat69 · 2022-06-23T03:06:01+00:00

Yes, I have trouble with the website. It's UI is terrible imo, and very hard to use. Also, I can't comment on any threads, plus it's hard to even find threads, there only seem to be a couple?

I can't find the app. I dunno if it's cuz my phone is not top of the line, or if it's not available on Android at all.

I'm very disappointed that this sub was closed down, I think that was a bad idea. I know that moderating is hard, especially on this site filled with rude teen boys, but it still sucks that FDS is gone.

Edit: OMFG I DIDN'T USE AUTISTIC AS AN INSULT. It is a statement of fact, in that A) tons of Redditors are autistic, and B) people with autism tend to have terrible social skills and difficulty discerning nuances in written words (as evidenced in some of my replies), and that goes double for teens, and then double again for guys!

I have now edited it, I hope that helps

Anti_Drama · 2022-06-25T06:21:50+00:00

Haven't been here in awhile - I thought FDS looked too "dead" with the infrequent posts, and didn't realize there was stuff going on elsewhere. The other website doesn't look too bad but keep in mind that I just looked at it for the first time. Other women's comments here may have merit.

Infinite_Summer_4378 · 2022-06-22T18:39:40+00:00

I've had issues with scroted posting on it

I'm not a guy :)
