I dislike the trend of all apps having to be Snapchat. It adds bloat, and even if well coded and running on a powerful phone, it adds bloat to the interface. Not every app has to be a jack-of-all-trades. I've particularly found it frustrating how Facebook Messenger is no longer a clean list of conversations sorted by most recent. Now I have to scroll through games, rooms, their Snapchat clone, online now, suggested friends, etc. just to get back to my friend I talked to yesterday.
On the other hand, Snapchat is an awful piece of software, and some competition to prod them into fixing it would be useful.

- ClassyJacket 10y agoI also have Shared Days, suggested rooms, groups, and probably some others that I have to hide every week. Shared Days cannot be hidden at all.
- freyr 10y agoFacebook seems bent on taking the wind out of Snapchat's sales before their IPO, even if it means adding bloat to their apps. At the moment, Snap is their only serious competitor.
