User Reviews for iFunny – hot memes and videos
After 8 years on this app, I am deleting this. Y’all are sick
I downloaded iFunny in 2014. It was all memes and and great humor back then. It’s turned into a gross hateful community. I let it slide because of the few funny memes and good talking points. Until today. Today I accidentally clicked on collective and the first thing I saw was a teenage girl killing her cousin and then herself. I thought it might be a fake skit and rushed to the comments for some kind of validation. Not only was it real but people were commenting jokes. Some of them were racist, others were just poking fun. The only serious comments were complaints about how stupid the upcoming generation is and pointing at the need for gun safety. No one seemed alarmed or upset that they had just watched a human end their life. I did not want to see someone end their life. The complete like of respect for human life on this app is sick. A community that was originally made for people to post funny things and spread good memes has turned into seething hatred. This review isn’t political. I’m not saying their comments on gun safety are wrong or that any political party’s beliefs had made this app what it is. It is simply the disgusting people on this app and how they simply run rampant and unchecked. After 8 years, I’m deleting this app. Good bye, and I hope those reading this can spread more love than hate.
Ifunny is great buttt
Ive used ifunny for years but after a while you relies your just on there to avoid life or even just social media your on there subconsciously just hoping for something to make you breath through your nose a little because nothing else can but after a while your just liking posts from 6,7 years ago from a guy who got off a long time ago or has been on for over 5000 days I know meme community’s look down on ifunny because it’s about as basic as just finding funny pictures can be but that’s what I love about the simplistic idea of it. Reddit is kinda complicated to a normie like me, tags groups with tags can’t find anything or people I actually relate to but everyone and I mean everyone on ifunny relates to the facts that we have nothing better to do than swipe and feel nothing and we all appreciate and look down on eachother which might sound bad till you realize it’s negative reinforcement like f that guy gonna do 10x better kinda like fat shaming it works but is harsh weird you read all this if you did
Just stop.
I have had iFunny since the beginning, and up until recently their updates have been largely positive. I tolerated the ads understanding full well that bills need to be paid, etc. The new vertical scrolling is where I draw the line. There isn’t a single positive that I can say about the newest format. With the new format, I am viewing up to 3 memes/ads at a time, not fully sure where to stop my scroll lest the next video in line start playing. AND IF I manage to stop scrolling at the appropriate interval, I’m now distracted with the previous and upcoming features in the same frame with no way to single out the meme I’m looking at or zoom in should I need to. Not to mention the fact that if I accidentally touch the top of my screen, the entire session starts back at the top as if I’m on Facebook, etc. The old way was perfect. Double tap to like (now it’s a triple tap because the first tap simply pauses the video which I never asked for), scroll up for comments (now I scroll up and end up 10 memes down), scroll left from comments to see the next meme (does nothing now), etc. It’s bad, and literally has no benefits. No one likes this. Change it back or at least give us an option, because honestly this is ridiculous.
Big Issues
Before criticizing, I want to preface by saying that I enjoy the app, and it’s one of the best for keeping up with trending memes. With that out of the way, for awhile now (months), the absurd number of features have been difficult to keep up with. I may be cynical, but I think the reasoning is that the more time people spend on the app, the more advertisements they’ll see, and generate more revenue for the devs. The other issue is the nasty undercurrent of alt-right users. This has been prevalent since the 2016 election, and I feel the main reason for why many people have left the app since then.2021 update: the ads have supposedly gotten worse, however some users like me have Lockdown or Blokada to block this nonsense. Without it, many users report their phone battery drains and overheats from the amount of ad trackers. On top of that, features are being pumped out by algorithms at an even faster rate, which is impossible to keep up with and causes the community to be spread thin. Many like myself demand this to be less, preferably when it was around only a few sets of 20 a day. If no changes are made soon, your userbase is going to decline fast.
2,680 Days
I’ve been using this for the past 7 and a half years and I really think this is the update that’s gonna break me. I’ve sat through update after update of “improvements” that have slowly alienated your user base further and further from you, you add actual improvements like saving videos only to remove the feature a month down the line. While I understand you are a company that needs to make money, the level of advertisements on the app has become absolutely ridiculous, you can’t scroll more than 3 memes at a time without coming across one and now there are ads in the comments separating every 2-3 comments. While all of these are quite annoying changes, they really are nothing more than minor inconveniences everyone loves to get upset about, but what’s more than a slight nuisance is your most recent entire overhaul of ui. It might not seem like a big change but moving the apps style of scroll to be the same as that of the browser website is the dumbest and most jarring change I’ve seen come to this app at least since the introduction of in app videos. 7 and a half years of mindlessly scrolling to the left and now I’m supposed to throw away 2680 days of muscle memory in favor of a “seamless timeline” that does nothing but take up more of the overall screen than needed and ruin my meme going experience.
The ad-apocalypse hits
Ifunny was a great site for just scrolling around but its gotten to the point where it adds it the unskipiable 10-15 second ads, really. No other social media does this. The video links cant be reposted in discord like you were able to do before, making it harder and harder to even share the memes that are not some sort of porn or propaganda to begin with. I used to enjoy this app but the devs are just making that harder and harder to do.edit: almost forgot, along with the unskipable ads, there are memes that are just flat out replaced by it, ads on the bottom of the screen in a little bar the entire time, and ads shoved in-between each couple comments in every single meme. I haven't been here as long as most of the people (only around 4 years this up coming December) but that is long enough to know that the app once wasn't a giant billboard for stupid mobile games like every other phone app now days. I never really minded the small ads on the bottom of the screen or the ones that you would occasionally get in between each meme (I have even gotten to read some good web comics because of the ads every-once in a while. The ads in the comments seemed pretty bad but then this new unskipable crap is just unacceptable for an app like this. It's really sad to watch my favorite app become such a trashy piece of crap so fast because of a thing like the ad-pocalypse. Why do the devs have to do this to us, I just don't understand.
Was great, but standards fell
1,600 days. I’ve been on this app for almost 5 years with an account and for more than 8 years overall. I used to love this app, it was my sense of humor, where I found memes, where I sent them to friends and we all laughed. This app had a great community and everyone just competed to be the funniest. NOTICE, all of my memories were in past tense. Now when I open iFunny in public I have to worry about almost nude underage women showing up on my phone. The moderators and staff have severely disappointed me as a user time and time again. This app has always been relatively conservative, but it goes further right than even I care for. The nudity, especially of underage women, and the politics have killed this apps following. It is no longer a place of fun memes like it used to be. Other apps like TikTok have taken over and iFunny has fallen on the back burner. It isn’t too late to improve the app to its former glory and beyond but I don’t foresee that happening anytime soon. If you had asked me 5 years ago if I would have recommended this app, I wouldn’t have hesitated, but now I’d tell you you’re better off looking for memes anywhere else. I hope they fix this app, and I hope things change. There are so many ideas for what this app could be, but no one listens. I hope this gets through and I hope the app eventually comes back to what it used to be instead of continuing down the hole of nudity, underage porn, and severely one sided politics.
This is getting ridiculous
I have been using ifunny for years and years now ever since I first discovered it as a kid but the amount of ads are getting really ridiculous and people are angry and you’re going to start ruining your app. It was on thing to have them in between features that’s fine, in the comment section it started to get a bit much, the content section is harder and harder to navigate cause of all the ads buts that’s not why I’m here. I shouldn’t be hearing ads playing over videos, now you could say that’s how it was recorded and weasel your way out of it but the first two times it played it didn’t have it, the third time an audio ad just Kept repeating itself, I went in the comments, still played. Tried watching a video in the comments, still played in the background over the sound of the video I was trying to watch. That is absurd and never should’ve been a concept especially with no way to stop it other than completely closing the app and having to come back to whatever you were watching now gone cause the feed reset itself. You’re going to start losing a lot of followers if you keep putting an inordinate amount of ads in. Soon it won’t be “ifunny” it will be “iadvertise.”
Change does not always mean good
2,100 days, almost six years I have looked at this app almost every day for a little under six years. I wouldn’t still be here if I didn’t like it. I love IFunny. I have seen the bad and the worse parts of this app, and I love it and it’s dysfunctional community. I’ve seen the trends and most of the updates. But an update does not mean an improvement. After 2,100 days I am finally starting to look at this app less and less all because the most recent update. Advertisements in the comments. The “feature” does not seem like that big of a deal at first glance, however the sheer amount of ads makes scrolling through comments a jarring experience. It completely halts the mindless scrolling that this app is essentially based on. It creates this space where now no matter where you go, once a post becomes popular enough, you see advertisements. There is no longer a break between the ads. There is only a constant ever-unyielding advertising experience. Nobody is enjoying the new experience. People are angry, people are leaving. And frankly I don’t want to see the app hurt over this. But with the new update IFunny no longer offers anything that you can’t get on a different meme based app. Now IFunny only offers the same memes that everybody else does, with thrice the ads everybody else does.
iFunny has always been bad, but it’s gotten worse in other ways
It’s normally been a place for the vile, which is why it came off the AppStore in the first place for a while. But it came back, and there were certain rules put in place, so the horrible horrible stuff wasn’t there anymore. It was fine.Now they push out dumb updates, mechanically ruining the app. With trying to copy Reddit to now completely changing the scroll system. The recent scroll system conflicts with how you got to the comments (swipe down for comments, swipe sideways for the next post) so it’s dumb for normal longtime users. People also post really long posts, so you have to scroll down and down and down for the next feature, very frustrating if you want to just skip a post.There’s also how stale featured has become, it used to be basically handpicked funny stuff, now it seems automated, picking everything and anything. Mods are abusive, you don’t like them you’re gone, which is fascinating. Posting a comment making fun of a certain mod who had relations with an underage boy, you get banned from commenting until you delete it. The point of the app is to be funny, and it’s known to be a bit edgy, but you can’t mock a pedo? Odd. It’s just become so bad.
