This is my first comment on this forum, so forgive me if this has already been discussed. But I was reading a comment today from someone who referenced the Health Code Daily podcast episode about online haters. I listened to it and I am so frustrated and angry that I needed to vent on here.
She was talking how some people are very aggressive and she deletes and blocks those people. But she isn't even doing that. She is deleting comments and blocking her fans who are literally giving her their feedback and constructive criticism. Comments like "I wish I could buy this, but I lost my job and can't afford it!" Or "I wish this was a cookbook and not an app" are getting deleted by her. It proves to me that she truly doesn't care about her fans. She has no sympathy if her followers lost their jobs and are struggling financially. She does not value her fans. She still has yet to publicly say something like "I'm sorry so many of you are struggling financially during this pandemic. The Sunee team is discussing what we can do to help. We understand the hardships everyone is going through and will get back to you soon".
When I followed her, I thought she was a great person because all of her comments were so kind and uplifting. She always talked about haters and I expected people who were being ruthless online. That was until I saw the genuine comments on her Instagram for the Sunee app launch, which she ended up deleting. I was shocked because I did not find them rude at all and thought the feedback was very informative! They had comments about how glitchy the app was, the recipes not being thought out well, etc. It's good to know those things so you don't spend $120 on something with a bunch of issues. But when she deleted that feedback I felt like we are all deceived, so I googled it which led me here and on Reddit forums. I saw so many screenshots of respectful comments from fans she deleted and blocked. It's incredibly rude! And she lies to her fans who are oblivious by making it seem like she only deletes threats or very hateful things.
Sorry for the rant. I'm irritated by their lack of empathy and respect for their followers, and how she lies and takes advantage of them. I've since unfollowed her and will no longer support her again.
