Filtering your feed for curation... ignore all bidbots or annoying authors if you want to!!

in #steem6 years ago

I usually try and take a bit of time to wander around the steem blockchain but lately I have been roaming in familiar cirles and I had not realized that...

So today I did jump into the deep end again and went browsing through the New section and not through HOT or TRENDING

It does get frustrating quite fast but I did come across a new person to follow (@vikisecrets) and through their feed I found something that might make this a little easier in the future and its made by someone I had never heard from before : @jga (so thank you for creating this wonderful tool)

here is a link to this cool tool:
https://joticajulian.github.io/custom-feed/

so the coolest thing there was that it allows you to filter on what type of posts you want to see.

so the coolest thing there was that it allows you to filter on what type of posts you want to see. And it also has an option to filter out the posts that have been upvoted by bidbot Bidbots (or certain users)

The following are 3 different filters:

  • normal trending
  • normal trending with "no bidbots" ticket
  • normal trending with "no bidbots" ticked and taken out haejin

- normal trending with "no bidbots" ticket

- normal trending with "no bidbots" ticked and taken out haejin

now these are some examples of what you can do with this tool but for active curators its also really helpfull as in you can eliminate certain tags so if you take out Dmania and steepshot you will probably get more blogs with written text if that is what you are looking for.
It helps you sort the wheat from the chaff (depending if you are looking for wheat or not)

well whatever may be the case I will experiment a bit with these options and see if this will allow me to curate more easily

The only thing that might be cool to have is to be able to log in to this site and have certain search presets fixed if you always want to use the same preferences....

I have bookmarked the page and gave @jga a follow... there seem to be more cool projects in the pipeline there... so keep up the good work.

Thanks! Hope this is useful to other Mapsters.

Upvoted, resteemed and has been added to the latest MAP Upvotes post.

i hope so as well... i found it to be a cool tool

Thank you very much for pointing it out! I'm glad that it is useful for many.

yes it is, I am really liking it and sharing it will hopefully bring you a few followers as well

having a place where one could save settings would be cool though but I do not know how hard that would be.
would you also please be so kind as to cast your supportvote for my witness? you can use the link just under the banner in the post, thanks in advance

See this presentation:
https://steemit.com/utopian-io/@jga/introducing-custom-feed-filter-the-authors-and-posts-that-you-want-to-read

You can save your searches in favorites, because all the options are written in the url.

I’ve already done this by muting. I muted the entire trending page a while back.

ok but this is a bit more selective then that, but I have read that you completely ignore them and are very anti bid bot on your posts so that would indeed work for you

Very useful. Im new to steemit and been wondering if there was a setting to do this! Thanks for sharing!

you are very welcome

Thanks a lot! The idea is so simple I almost started it myself. Unfortunately too busy with other stuff. Resteemed!

thanks, that will help a bit

Very cool now if this can be deployed to steemit or busy.org it would really make curation easier with a natural and organic way of discovering content

What also would be great is if this filter can be used to demote shitposting and put them into a supplemental index because the new feed really needs some pruning

well, this is just a viewing tool into the blockchain, a manual filter but its very usefull for curation

Tolle Info lieber @felander, Da sieht es auf einmal wieder ganz anders aus da sErgebnis. Danke für die Arbeit

ganz gerne...

könntest du wenn möglich mein witness unterstutzen?
Ich sehe das ihr noch nicht fur ein witness gestimmt habt...
wenn ihr mich vertraut mit eure stimmen dan könnte ich euer proxy sein...

einfach der untere link in der post nutzen... danke im voraus

Great find @felander it's a constant battle trying find stuff to read on here without getting lost 💯🐒

thanks, i find the same thing... this helps a bit finding those needles in the haystack

Steemit needs to incorporate this for sure 💯🐒

Wow that's a very cool tool!

yea, I thought so to, its been out for a few months but had never seen it.

thougt it might be something useful to share around.

(please do not forget to vote for the witness with the link under the banner, thanks)
