YAHOO! FINANCE - Jan 14 - According to Dimo Trifonov, CEO of the threesome app Feeld, swiping is merely a "temporary solution to a problem of digital overconsumption and messy, unstructured databases of things." The 26-year-old entrepreneur launched Feeld in 2014 for people to explore the possibilities of threesomes. The app gained some notoriety for Tinder's attempt to sue the startup over its former name 3nder. 3nder changed its name to Feeld in August, a move Trifonov argues hasn't significantly affected its user base of 2M people. Feeld is abandoning the swiping model and "we are also getting rid of the 'judgment user interface' of liking and disliking people", he says. Feeld also plans on launching an entirely new, unnamed app in the spring focused on bringing people together for events.
