Wasn’t broken, but they fixed it anyway

Newest version crashes on MacBook pro to the point of having to uninstall all versions on the device and reinstall the newest version, which also crashes, and when open, now blocks access to adult themed rooms. As a paying subscriber, this is a bridge too far.

Missing icon of user

Paltalk is old platform and lack of modern technical control. Problem happen very often, it’s alway freezing. And I am unable to see many user in the chat room because the icon of user at upper right corner has been removed. My room subscription is $500+ for 3 Mics, and we setup Auto Reddot, but now I can’t even unreddotted myself in the room even though I am an admin of the room.

I contact tech support in JIRA but no response. Sliding to the left of the screen doesn’t work. Please fix. Thanks
