I tried swarm, but the whole global-checkins thing was killed, it's now mayorships between friends only, and I don't care about that. All the useful functions were moved to swarm and neutered, so I just uninstalled them both. Also a nearly 5 year user. I wish them the best, but it's useless to me now.

A really sad, odd thing for them to do - I guess they realized they were never going to make money at the old app, and decided to do the new? Wonder how that is going to go, if they lose their user base (that they are replying on to generate new content).
