This same crap has been happening to me as well. So Not Cool

IMHO, they are needing to generate revenues for "upgrades, securing more writers, etc", while displaying they can make money so they can eventually go IPO.

Me too! Feels like a beta site rater than a good working model.  ;(

WellI did all that, and no sound for mobile notifications -- Even though it is a MAX volume! Your forcing me to stare at my phone to see if there was an alert, which id's quite ridiculous and a water of precious time!

Same thing for Android! This "upgrade" sux  -- it's more of a downgrade!!!! :( Disappointing.
