The whole app feels broken right now. Is there a way I can support you to fix it? The last couple of days seem to be getting worse, especially from a UX perspective.

I’ve loved your app since the beginning, but it’s becoming totally unusable, and the UX seems to be going backwards.

I made a comment this week about rainbows, but honestly fuck that. There are massive issues now that dwarf rainbows. I genuinely want your app to succeed; are these issues deliberate design choices or bugs? I can’t tell at this point (I’ve been a designer and developer, including on iOS, for decades so I feel like I should be able to tell the difference, but I honestly can’t tell).

    Most of it is from 2 things:

    1. Switched component libraries - from Native Base to Gluestack. This is not an easy change.
    2. Switched state libraries - from Redux to Zustand. This is not an easy change.

    No we have not made our app broken on purpose… If you want to help, feel free to contribute on Github. If there are massive issues you are running into at least tell us what they are. Give us constructive feedback. Not “This is unusable”. Also gk and I have both been taking some time off so that’s why a lot of these issues haven’t been fixed immediately. We are mildly burnt out.
