a filtering feature would be great, really.

YES YES YES! That's what we want!

Are you filtering by sats in your content settings?

This might help.

If you filter by sats, you might miss the good ones that are new, before they cross your filter barrier. Also, there seem to be some that are interesting, to me, but are low sats posts. I don’t really want to filter them out.

Now I am! What would be a good filter to recommend? I set it to 100 now.

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @ek 17 Nov

I'd say start with 100 and increase until you're happy

You can filter by sats. It’s in your settings

16 sats \ 3 replies \ @denlillaapan 17 Nov

ah, that's a way that would work I guess (since links and non-productive posts usually don't get much in sats)

You may be cutting off something within your sphere of interests using the sats filter. All new posts have very few sats on them, until someone likes it a lot. You could be missing out on some good stuff this way.

You could be missing out on some good stuff this way.

How if the good stuff rises above the filter? As long as there are always stackers willing to look through the new stuff to zap the good stuff early (and be rewarded for it), this shouldn't be the case.

Then, you are saying, there is no need for the filters? I don’t use them and have not lost enjoyment of reading the posts. Even some heavily subscribed posts don’t interest me, whereas, some of the untapped ones do. Maybe there is no need to worry about what content and what zaps are going on in this space.

Thank you! Let's see if that will help
