I am a long-term and active buyer. I am tremendously frustrated with the changes to Buyer Requests. I posted a request 36 hours ago and I currently have no sellers responding to this request. I have complained about this change multiple times.
I am capable of dealing with the sellers responding that are low-balling or that do not match the request.
I would much rather have a lot of responses to comb through than none at all.
I will not post another request in the future. It's a waste of time.
I also do not 'TIP'...this feature is just a Fiverr hustle to get more fees. I would gladly 'tip' if they didn't charge fees on top of the tip.
I am getting to the point of going to other freelancer sites to find help with my projects.
