- they split it into "friends" and "everything else" because as the service grew there was suddenly tons more boring and also hardcore gay content, and the app was so slow that it really wasn't convenient to scroll past it or skip it. I don't mind the gay content but as a non-gay person there was just a lot of it to sort through.
- to this day it is still it or miss when I open the app on my iPhone. Takes a while to load and often shows old content
- when you get notifications it's not clear whether someone hearted your comment or made a comment, the UX around this is poor
- old secrets don't just die, so there is a constant reflux of stuff that should be forgotten just because someone discovers it and posts a lame comment
- some people started spamming/trolling by posting obviously fake secrets
- someone found a security hole that makes the app not actually anonymous. who's going to post anything really juicy when this exists...
