The volume controls for circles are a great idea. I prefer this to the algorithmic approach taken by Facebook.

It's a pitty that pseudonymns are still not mentioned here though. NSFW controls would be nice too (as opposed to the blanket ban on NSFW content in place at present).

I begged for Stream-tuning from the beginning. I've never used Facebook, so I have no basis for comparison, but I really expected to be able to do this from the start.

Facebook used to have a feature very similar to this, but they removed it.

I have to change the volume for each user?

You don't "have" to do anything, but if you wish you can change the volume for each circle.

Each circle.
