Ceepert:Almost noone adds the country they are from in the title of posts in the Personal ads section, especially dating and meetups.
There already is the "current status" circle on everyone showing if they are "online" "afk" or "offline" in the bottom right of their profile picture.
Would it be possible to add the country flag of the user to the bottom left?
I assume this isnt a problem for people form the US as most users are from there, but especially for pretty much everyone else its quite anoying cause you have to open each post to see where the user is from.
Munchies:I'm confused. Your country flag is next to your username whenever you make a post. Right now, I see the German flag next to your username.
Ceepert:Yes in the post itself its visible next to the name. But not in the list of posts itself. There you can only see the activity status. And when you wanna know where the user is from who posted it to see if for example if the person is in your area you have to open the post first.
Which is very anoying when you wanna check out multiple potential posts
MottiF:I’m with Munchies, I really don’t see what the problem is, every profile posting there is a Country Flag below the profile’s name, even if user posted on several places you can see the flag
Ceepert:Here! This is what I mean, the post list. You cant see the country flag here, but it would be super usefull if you could so you can quickly check if anyone made a post on "Dating" or "Events" or similar in your area.
Almost noone ever adds the country they are looking for people in the posts title, so when you wanna check like once a week what has been posted you need to open like 15 tabs and look into each post individualy just to see that 90% of them are USA based.
Munchies:I get where you are coming from, but it complicates things for the feedists that travel a lot. And we have a sizeable chunk of those.
I've seen posts where people ask about meet-ups in a country far from them because they plan on going there. I've seen people who regularly travel between two or more countries make posts wanting to meet up in those and surrounding countries.
Ceepert:Sure, but those are the minority of posts and they could still just add the country they are looking for people in the title if they want
The only way that could work is if they had to fill out a form. People are SPECTACULARLY lazy. I have seen so many ads that are basically "Want feedee. Hmu"
I'm not saying you need to get over it. I'm just saying a form is the way to go if you want this to go anywhere.
