Thanks for sharing the 'discussion' I started.

Last year in October GitHub did the same and it was quickly reverted. I really hope this will happen again.

Having a chronological timeline is very useful and that feed is al great source of news interesting projects and people to follow. It's by far my favorite daily feed and I'm very sad that GitHub is trying to remove it.

Here is an aggregate of all the topics that are created in reaction to the update

Here on HN there must be someone from GitHub who is reading along, I'm curious if they can help us get the previous feed back as an option.

its comically bad. I only unchecked the recommendations, and now I get basically nothing:

i tried to keep my feedback as civil as possible:

i'm not sure if i succeeded, but i know additional bad words that i managed not to use.

This feels like the new AWS UI change. They went ahead with it despite (I assume) years of negative feedback. Now they continue to display the "Use classic UI" toggle but it does nothing. I can't tell if its incompetence or they actually think users are so dumb that they'll flip the switch and not notice they're still using the new UI.

New feed? It's an abomination.

My workaround: Discord bot with WebHooks set up for only the things I care about.

I thought this was a bug, I couldn't see my own activities on my own activity page? Is it funny? It's too garbage

Someone created a userscript to restore the old feed, it seems to work perfectly so far:

What the hell, now rename the website as GitTok lmao

This is the third time GitHub has enforced annoying useless spam feed.

BTW, why isn't this on the top page despite the high points? Is this oppressed? I checked HN at least every half day for the last few days and this must never have been ranked on the top page.

I used to dislike GitLab UI because I find it sometimes confusing. This change makes me dislike GitHub UI more.

I carefully curated my own "feed" through following users and orgs who's activity was interesting and relevant to me.

Now I get spam, without the ability to filter to the content I curated with follows.

It's changes like this that give me doubt about UI/UX FTEs. I wonder if full-time employment creates incentives for entropy on an otherwise stable, wrt ux, platform.

Planned obsolescence ux.

Next microsoft is going to add teams amd skype to github

In the name and push for innovation, teams across products and companies are actually making customers unhappy. I have my own curated feed to keep things as is for self.
