One of my friends journals is completely backwards. She had been on home dialysis for a long time. BUT she had a kidney transplant and she is thriving. Stupid. Why are the pictures of friends "blacked out"?
"improved experience no matter what device you're using. Seriously?????? It is NOT!!! NOT!!! NOT!!!! And No, it's NOT easier to follow anything! Certainly not on a computer. Not everyone does DS (or anything else) on a phone or tablet. I don't do internet on my phone and I don't do much internet on my tablet either. The reason I don't is the same reason I now find DS now so horribly difficult to use. TOO MUCH SCROLLING. IT HURTS MY HANDS!
I cannot stand the RUN ON paragraphs, so I'm continuing in another reply. The 1% of (minor) improvements for those of us who use computers do not outweigh 99% of the awful "dis-improvements" you've made. PLEASE take a step back and LISTEN to those of us who use this site. (check out the link in a totally unrelated group that showed up on my activity feed: https://www.dailystrength.org/group/widows-widowers/discussion/don-t-like-this ). Even new people are not saying good things about how the site works.
Continued denial will cost DS and sharecare greatly because they are already losing a lot of members. I used to tell everyone about DS. Until they have at least all of the features the old DS had and it's 10,000% easier to use. I will not even mention DS. I'm not that crazy about facebook, but I will say it a lot easier to use. And it looks better too. This place is DEPRESSING on so many levels. I only post here right now in the desperate hope that something either I or someone else says gets through to the powers that be. This is NOT working. I'm giving it a little longer in order to see if you actually FIX this mess before I stop coming here. It makes me really sad to say that, but I cannot continue to use the site as is because it's just too physically painful. And since this is owned by sharecare which is a bunch of doctors, I really hope they review the part of their Hippocratic oath: First, do no harm.

if it aint broke why fix it it was fine as it was now its like going into a supermarket where they have changed the food around aggghhhhh
I liked the old DS so much better. It was easy to find a group or friends. Like one post said, my safe space is not there anymore. I'm sad too.

My update which states 2 months ago has 2015 on it not 16. I'm not liking this experience at all.
Very glitchy. I'm having a terrible day and this has left me feeling completely set adrift!
This is a lot of change. I hope people don't leave.
Not a fan of the new site! I loved being able to see all the discussion topics at once and who had replied. I feel lost in this new format!
I can see no posts and no way to get them?
Change is very hard to cope with. I understand the old site was getting clunky and an upgrade was needed.I hope I can get used to the new DS quickly.
I cannot find my friends.
Stop with the grey type. It's very very hard to see!! And the size of the fonts in messages is way too small. Why does it need to be this tiny?

I cant find any of my support groups.
