Not sure I wuold agree. Certainly I think they made a mistake with the design changes.

Before this update I checked my newsfeed fairly often (4 or 5 times an hour) and it was usually updated.

Last night after the change I saw maybe 2 or 3 new additions in arond 2 hours (even though I was hanging out on specific friends profiles and watching their new content from there). A lot of stuff never made it to my feed. :(
