We hope for feedback on, for example, the following experiences:

The journal sends requests to act as an author, reviewer, editorial board member or editor from outside the recipient's field of expertise.
The reviewers, authors, or editors have been given too little time, or the publication process has taken an unreasonably long time.
The feedback received from the reviewers and/or the editors is of low quality, inappropriate or does not focus on the scientific content.
The journal has published articles despite the negative opinion of the editors or reviewers, or without taking into account the revisions required by the reviewers.
Several articles have been published in the journal that are scientifically of low quality or against good scientific practice.
In addition to personal experiences with quality assessment, we also hope for feedback on questionable operating principles verified in, for example, scientific articles or blog posts.

Remember last year's call in Finland to investigate MDPI, Hindawi, Frontiers etc? The journal ranking (JUFO) is now collecting formal evidence on journal malpractice & 15 days left! Do a good thing of the day: leave evidence in this thread, I'll report it for you
