I want to know…
I’ve only been subscribed for a month, but this app has become a favorite. I love the in-depth “fact or two” of the day and look forward to it! With that said, my concern is whether I will see new “facts” after I complete my first year, or will they just be repeated? My hope is that the app would present all new daily facts every year with no duplicates. Even better would be for the app to keep track of what was already presented to me so as never to offer up a duplicate. If duplicates are in the future, I will then need to cancel. I’m hoping to get some clarification from the devs about this. Also, what exactly happens when I thumb up 👍 or down 👎 a fact? Thanks!!!

Interesting Stuff!
Big fan of the app so far. Covering a wide range of topics from engineering disasters to cultural evolutions of different subjects. For the app maker: I’m having an issue with liking post. Whenever I click the “thumbs up” button at the bottom of the read, it always highlights and clicks the “thumbs down.” Could be just a visual bug and I’m actually likening it, but I’m not sure. Can you guys fix this. Fan of the writing and I don’t want to dislike by accident when I want to like.
