Who do you want to follow and what kind of update/alert do you want?
For instance, say i want to follow you or @sn channel to get alerted about new updates related to sn or say someone is sharing valuable content here (not necessarily their own + maybe not many people find what they share valuable and it get lost in top content or doesnt show up there) but i personally like it and would want to be updated w what they’re sharing. A follow option would be nice to have so that i dont have to manually search for their username and it gets shown somewhere in our profile feed!?!?

Not sure if that’d be good idea but was just brainstorming. I use this platform as a place where i can share things which i’d like to go back again and read so most of what i share here are my fav articles or research papers or poems which earlier used to get lost in browser tabs. And i’d like to thank u for that as well. Here i can come anytime and find the text and go to link to read plus if someone else likes it they can even pay, it’s like cherry on top for me!

I see, so you want the content of people you follow to get ranked higher on your feed?
reply
Correct! Do u think it’d be nice?

It could be. Reddit has this but people don't really use it. I think it might sound more useful than it is.
Our current ranking algorithm measures trust between users. Once every user has their own feed, this begins to make more sense.
