I have a few thoughts about what else to try. If you want I can write you a bit about it. I have something in a simmilar state but my back-end partner dropped out and I'm not sure I can learn python quick enough for a prototype. http://malea.lacerta.uberspace.de/up/4cc7b319-8094-423d-beef...

A few things I want to try:

- dismiss all seen links on a page (on mobile in my prototype you flick away a page like a card) by default

- sort by rating rod chronologically, but NOT public/democratic rating, only rating by the one who posts. This is the main thing I want to try :)

- auto-retweet (you can make an account that is essentially a currated list of people or curate "editors" of an imaginary magazine)

- if you retweet normally, you have to give a new rating for your followers

Mainly for sharing links. I want to allow people to share unimportant stuff and still getting the important stuff across. And i want to avoid a suggestion engine, only direct "i trust your rating personally" realationships.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I went ahead and implemented part of (2): letting the user who posts to rate. I'll work on ranking posts by this score.

oh wow :) you are quick.

Can I contact you by other means? Email or some instant messaging? I can sent you an invite to my little alpha.

People of course might abuse the rating, so the question is if one should normalize or at least fine-tune by having rating up and down in your own feed. And if you sort just by rating, without decay, a new user sees ooold posts at the top (because he has not dismissed any by going to the next page).

Good thoughts. I'll add it on my todo list. You can contact me on foolow.

Won't it get annoying if new posts of lesser ranking keep showing up first?

did you just put "send PMs" on the todo? haha. I just want to sent you an invite in private, can we find a channel for that :) ?

And if you're up for it, let's chat a bit or skype.

Other way arround: you most important first of course.

Can I PM on foolow?
