One of the problems I have with changing the way the "Discover" view works whilst at the same time keeping it "clean" (_depending on who you talk to_) is the behaviour between "Timeline" (what you follow explicitly) and "Discover" (a view into the pod's cache). See attached, where I by default prefer a "collapsed" view (_hiding replies_). The default behaviour for Discover (no controls) is "everything".

The reason I bring this up is that part of my "workflow" has become to occasionally use the "Discover" view to see if I've missed any "in-between" replies that often happen, find new interesting folks to follow and/or interact with, etc.

Changing this to anything but the current behaviour would break this flow for me 😒

@dfaria Appreciate this πŸ‘Œ Right now the algorithm is quite dumb -- and I'd also hate to develop any algorithm that abuses any data from users. So definately needs to be things like:

- one post per day per domain
- or latest post per domain

etc/./

To be fair cleaning up "noise" is quite hard to do. Obciously all the 1-way Mastodon feeds were easy because there's just no way to interact with them!

@bender I guess all I can do is unblock the domain and sit down and rethink the "Discover" view's design and behavior? hmmm 🧐 Alternatively, build a new yarnd 2.0? as a single-user pod only?

@bender Yeah I could get behind that. Define minimalistic though? What features (if any) would we drop? Would it be mobile-first or desktop-first?

@bender I never see problems on my end, so I suspect this has to be Cloudflare doing this occasionally. I'll have to poke around there again. At least I have a close enough timestamp :D Maybe message me your IP and approximate timestamp?

@dfaria Sorry this has pissed you off so much (unintentional) -- Also why the irrational outburst?! 😱 That's no way to have discourse or help improve anything πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ

If you have ideas for improvement we're all ears πŸ‘‚

@dfaria Cancelling is a strong word. I'd you follow your other feed yourself it's still visible to you!

This whole exercise just reenforces that the idea of the "Discover" view was and is a terrible idea. 😒

@mckinley I'm not sure to be honest I think it's just a straight up duplicate post. This _actually_ does happen, it's not a bug, it's a "human problem", but yeah it's annoying, so it's making me want to figure out a way of keeping some kind of similarity db to strip duplicates out like this.
