Lately I've noticed that old (10 days, two weeks, etc.) posts can pop back to the tip top of my news feed if even just one person comments on them or maybe shares them, days after they were relevant. Is that what's happening? This isn't exactly bugski, more of a suggestion/clarification.
I know mk likes people to post on old threads to continue discussion, but it seems unnecessary for a thread from two weeks ago to shoot back to the third spot on my feed after a belated share. Seems counter-intuitive, because odds are I already saw that thread and would have it saved if I thought it was interesting enough to merit returning to.
Example: Saydrah's thread on what it feels like to love, from 10-12 days ago, is currently very high up on my feed again because someone shared it earlier today.
Possible fix: a sliding scale? The longer back a post was created, the more shares/comments it takes for it to go up my feed?
I know this is late, but one of my posts from 15 days ago is 10th on my feed. Is that because it was just recently shared by someone (only one share), or because of the recent comment from 15 hours ago? Post in question.
I kinda like it. I've noticed a couple posts I hadn't seen before and some comments. They pop back up when new comments are posted right? The love one was great.
mk, sorry to ping you twice in an evening, but to piggyback -- I don't think community tags are showing up as dark blue on my feed even if I follow them. Maybe it's a global issue that suggested tags just aren't "followable"? Don't even know if that merits a fix but I thought you might not be aware. Example: the #technology tag thenewgreen added to this thread. Not blue, though I follow #technology.
