Anyone else not happy with Wattpad's decision to take away DM's?
Why take away our only means to connect with eachother one on one in private?
This is going to make it harder for people to collaborate, (especially people who don't use social media and those who don't feel comfortable sharing their personal IRL contact info) and it's gonna make it impossible to connect with followers on a more personl level than just comments and profile message boards.
Like, some of us talk to each other on here about life, personal things we're going through, some of us bounce ideas off of each other for new stories we're working on that aren't ready to be posted yet. We can't do that on public forums like comments and profile updates.
Personally, I think this is going to negatively impact the communities we've created here.
Wattpad can still DM us but our friends and followers can't. It just doesn't seem right to me, to cut off such a vital form of communication between users.
