Default who uses the social feeds app...

Anyone use the social feeds app on OS6? I know I don't because its too clogged up and the BBM, Facebook, and Twitter icons are too small for a glance. I like to keep it simple and old school (checking out the feeds in induvidual apps) :P

Social Feeds is an automatic delete from any OS I install. It is something of a mess.
Since I don't (and never will) do Facebook and find SocialScope better for Twitter
and XPRSS better for RSS feeds it is quite pointless

Not me either. SocialScope for FB and Twitter FTW.

I'm another who doesn't get the point to it really.

My understanding is to have it work the apps have to be set to update but then Twitter notifies me anyway so I get notified of the same tweets twice!

And I'm not really a big fan of the native Twitter app, don't use RSS so it's pretty much an un-needed app for me
