Luft nach oben

Ich habe die App früher sehr gerne genutzt und war anfangs auch sehr zufrieden, mit der Zeit sind jedoch immer mehr Fehler aufgetreten, die die Nutzung zunehmend erschweren. Aus diesem Grund habe ich sogar das PRO Abo abonniert da ich die Entwicklung der App gerne unterstützen würde.

Leider habe ich den Eindruck, dass sich die App irgendwie verschlechtert, als verbessert hat. Schade weil die App hat schon Potenzial. Ich hoffe das die bestehenden Probleme im Zukunft behoben werden und die App wieder die Qualität erreicht, die sie mal hatte.

Unzuverlässig

…ich bin mit der App sehr unzufrieden. Die Integration von Bluesky ist immer noch fehlerhaft. Dauernd muss man Bluesky neu anmelden. Und dann dieser Anmeldeprozess ist eine Katastrophe. Das Crossposting klappt auch nicht zuverlässig… da muss einiges, bis ich die App wieder nutze

Not reliable

I get constant issues with posts that fail to post and then every time I try to comment on something else, that old post shows up as the comment draft. It’s very weird and unreliable

Not actually open

Having multiple profiles used to be a basic part of the app. Now it’s been locked behind a premium subscription with no warning. Complete nonsense from a so-called “open” app that doesn’t even publish its source code!

Now A Paid Subscription That Only Covers One Device And The Bugs Continue

I signed up for the Pro version at the discounted price on my phone. Thought everything was good but the app on my iPad wouldn’t recognize the subscription. Finally realized each device would need a separate subscription; they can’t be shared between devices. I don’t think this is worth 2 subscriptions.

Works Well (depending), Not Worth It

So, it worked quite well on Android and iOS, the mac version is just the iPad version (not scaled quite right but fine). Still worked well, until they introduced a monthly fee, to access FREE services. A 1 time fee to pay the developer for their time would be 100% fine, but a monthly subscription to use free sites… please. Uninstalled. There are better alternatives.

High potential for greatness

This app has good potential. I really like the integrated timelines from multiple platforms, and that it remembers where you are in your timeline. There are a few features missing, but the dev team seems energetic and motivated. I look forward to seeing it mature.

Immer wieder mal Probleme

Die App war mal gut aber in letzter Zeit immer mehr Probleme, mit dem vorletzten Update ging Bluesky nicht mehr außer man richtet alles von 0 ein.
Jetzt soll man ein Abo abschließen wenn man mehrere Accounts hinzufügen möchte aber nein danke dafür läuft diese App zu instabil

Pleeeeeease

Any chance you could add the ability to see other users’ likes on their Bluesky profiles? Some other clients have this and it’s a really nice feature. Openvibe is great but this would make it even better!

Locking existing features behind a paywall is sleazy

The new update adds a pro subscription, and instead of just adding new features for the subscription, it locks existing features behind a paywall. Free accounts are now limited to 1 profile and 2 accounts. Both were unlimited before. I got no advance notice of this change, and now I have to choose which of my 5 accounts across 3 profiles I want to keep in the app. And they added a branded tagline to cross posts for free accounts. I get that you need to make money, but paid features should be extras, and if you can’t make the app faster and more reliable and add missing features (like muting and bookmarks among others), then it’s not worth paying for.

Auch nach Login-Fix ist kein Login möglich

Auch nach den Fix ist es nicht möglich sich mit einem eurosky account einzuloggen. Das funktionierte vor ein paar Wochen noch. Mittlerweile fehlt die Funktion einfach.
Schade, die App war mal ganz schön

I’ve move back to Bluesky

- bugs in Openvibe
- no response from Developers to multiple bug reports

… means I’m no longer using this frustrating app

Kaum noch benutzbar

Wäre schon schön, wenn die App nicht alle 60 Minuten sämtliche Einstellungen und Accounts vergessen würde. :(

Ich geh jetzt zurück zur Bluesky-App. Die ist nicht toll, aber funktioniert.

Rarely connects to Nostr and all Tumblr issues

The app generally works, OK. Lately, I have been running into a problem with Nostr.

The post always fails with Nostr now.

Also, Tumblr post are just links

Works great, slow as hell

Does exactly what it should, with some creative solutions to hard problems. But takes foreeeeevvvvvvver to start, which sort of defeats the point of a social media app.

Great app

I love how I can consolidate and manage multiple social networks as well as convert website posts to rss feeds.

Here’s the one thing that would make this full five stars:

Add cross-feed prefetching so that while I’m actively using one timeline (e.g., Bluesky), the app periodically fetches and caches posts for other timelines like Mastodon.

Ideally this would be configurable (interval, selected timelines) and limited to when the app is in the foreground. This would prevent Mastodon timelines from appearing empty or very stale when switching tabs.

Used to be great

I was using this app to ease the need to cross post on multiple platforms, but now that I can’t get Bluesky to work anymore it’s become useless to me

Wanted to like this but I cant properly cross post

Tried to crosspost a gif to mastodon and bluesky but it gave a error for mastodon (refused to post ) and the gif was broken for blue sky.

During the draft stage the gif was a grey box and upon looking up the post on blue sky it only showed the gif as an image.

Dauernde Neuanmeldung erforderlich

Die Idee der App ist ja ganz gut. Leider muss ich Mastodon und Bluesky dauernd neu anmelden. Das cross-reposten funktioniert nicht gut.

Fand die App mal super, …

… aber die ständigen Anforderungen, meine Accounts wieder neu anzulegen, machten bei der Nutzung keinen Spaß mehr. Schade! App gelöscht.
