#WordPress Devs….just stop it! This #Reader is 0/5
Okay, now you’ve really messed up my Reader! Where the hell are the blogs I follow?
For those who haven’t yet seen the new WordPress Reader landing page, this is it:
Under ‘Welcome to the Reader’ you will find this:
Recent posts from blogs and sites you follow will appear here.
But they don’t. They don’t appear ANYWHERE. Nor is there a clickable link to take me to wherever my follows have been hidden.
‘Explore Discover’ [shown as 1 on the screenshot] is Freshly Pressed with a new name.
‘Get recommendations…’ is just that, a list of blogs I do not follow that WordPress thinks I should be paying attention to.
In the Navigation pane to the left is an option called ‘My Likes’, but this only takes me to posts I have liked in the past.
Nowhere can I see a way of checking in on the blogs I have CHOSEN to follow for reasons pertinent to me.
How dare WordPress tell me my choices don’t count!
I hope this is a glitch of some sort that will get fixed pronto because this new Reader is so awful I really am tempted to leave WordPress altogether. Only the thought of losing all the material I have created during the last four years is stopping me.
Not happy WordPress. This time you really have gone too far.
