Feedback or feedbacks?

Is "feedback" countable or not? Feedback, feedbacks, a feedback?


I like this answer: "The word feedback has evolved over the years, and is now accepted as a countable noun. Therefore, if feedback shared frequently in certain professions, each feedback unit is countable and hence its plural is now accepted as "feedbacks" .

Also, when you use the word feedback in the phrase "one of" as in one of the feedback shared with her, sounds rather incorrect.

Hence, in modern times, feedbacks is "ACCEPTABLE"."

For a long time I thought this strong feeling is purely due to compassion, however, as I grew older I began to realise that it actually has more to do with a sense of injustice, a feeling of unfairness in our world today that is at play.  Traditional charity does not seem to work I realised at a young age that traditional charity does not seem to work. I remember asking my mother how much I had to donate so that a beggar would not have to beg anymore; my mother's answer was a simple one "don't be silly, the beggar will just spend it all". The Chinese have a saying that "better help those in urgent need than help the poor", the rationa...
