One thing to be clear about here is that it was never my intention for a pod's "front page" (Discover view when not logged in) to be any kind of "listing" or "advertising" or such. That was completely unintentional. If this is expected somehow, we should probably discuss that too more seriously and discuss its merits, and if it can be support, should be supported, or if there's a different solution entirely? For example. there is the search engine which _could_ show a global feed/timeline view, albeit the domain could be something different.

I'd like to hear some ideas that fix or improve the signal / noise ratio for all users and even benefits non-users (anonymous users just hitting a pod's index page, which is the discover view)

There's also a pod-level setting (admins) that control what the "Discover" (or front page if you're not logged in) display:
This is either:
- Local posts only (local to the pod)
- All posts in the pod's cache

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 π’

@dfaria Appreciate this π 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/./

@sorenpeter Thanks for your positivity and support ! π€ This is exaxrly spot on, however I also realize getting things "right" is actually quite hard π

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 π§ 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 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. π’

@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.
