People that install beta software and then complain about stability are puzzling
To be fair a lot of people have it on TestFlight because originally that was the only way to get it.
Not to mention it’s not complaining, it’s commenting there’s currently a bug, which is the basis of this forum. Unless there’s demands coming from the user or unreasonable expectations, it’s serving it’s intended function.
Heck, I was downvoted for it, as if I was somehow bashing Memmy for the listing a bug, that later was decided to unstable. I figure there’s always going to be overly defensive users thinking they’re helping by being divisive to the community.
It’s not like you don’t know it’s beta software though. Installing TestFlight and adding Memmy involved many steps.
Yeah, I think lots of people had FOMO about missing updates whenever the App Store version dropped, and mistook the stability of "preparing for release" as what the stability would be long term.
