Reviews of escape your bubble:
After i made a bad review. The site kept on trying to force me to login. I would open my facebook page, and every time i would open a new page the login page from this site would pop out at me. If this is how they deal with negative press, what to think. Avoid this app. Protect your privacy.
Requires signing up with email and password... except the create account page says "please fill out all fields before proceeding", when ALL the fields ARE filled out. So, it's useless. A virtual brick. Expected better of something done by Yale.
Is ok in that the articles it shows are often outside of my normal reading style, but it has several annoying features, the main one being that every time I restart my browser and then go to facebook, I get a login window for this app. Also, when I do get shown an article that I'm not interested in reading, I keep seeing the same article until i give in and click on it to make it go away.
Doesn't insert anything into my Feed. Suspiciously makes me signup with my email and a password when there's nothing necessitating either to insert stories into Facebook. Does not work. Scam?
Simple, easy to use, useful for greater context.
App doesn't slow down Facebook and Chrome functionality and shows me article outside of left-leaning news outlets.
Clicking the links that are inserted into my Feed redirects me back to my Facebook feed, rathar than the article. Kind of defeats the purpose if I can only read headlines but not the actual articles. Would rate higher if fixed.
Would be nice in addition to articles ABOUT certain groups, have positive articles from WITHIN the group you want to better understand. I highly doubt that Republicans are sharing very many pieces from the New York Times or the Guardian on a regular basis. Would be nice to get some conservative news sources.
I love the idea, and I almost always click on the story that shows up in my FB feed. However, the stories are often from 1-2 years ago when I'd love to see things from the last week.
For all the SJW crybabies out there. This is an app that will make you get out of your bubble and understand / process the real world news!
Barely noticeable extension, that doesn't interfere with daily web use, but provides those hidden gems that after reading, really does shape your perspective. Will it get me to Escape My Bubble? Too early to tell, but it gets my thumbs up
