Be good to be able to turn off updates such as people getting added to Hacker Channel
Well, great work with the News feed - but maybe we need to first stop and think WHAT should be considered news and what should show up in the feed.
For myself.
I dont mostly care about,
-- Who is following Me
-- Who gave me a Skull
-- Who was added to a project which I own or am a part of
-- Who mentioned me or my project somewhere
-- Somebody commented somewhere
I am following projects here on Hackaday.io so I would LOVE to see feed about a new PROJECT LOG or a new comment on any of those projects if it is specifically from the project creator/(one of the) contributor.
I would LIKE to see NEW Projects being created on hackaday which others are following or giving Skulls to.
So maybe among those lines. For the DONT CARE items listed above, there might be a few more of those, maybe a facebook like icon (a third one) on the top right corner which would just sohw me such a list when I click on it and NOT take up the space in my feed.
Also, images, can we get them a bit more smaller please...
Or the option of turning off the images of my own projects. I know exactly what they look like.
the comment notifications are "broken", seems like the "see all comments" link is missing the projectID between URL and logID and replies are called comments.
Button dismiss animation it's painfully slow. Everything else great.
Please make an option for ignoring the stack-posts. They're annoying as hell.
Ah, that's a great idea. It's actually so great, that the programmers on Hackaday borrowed the time machine from Guido Van Rossum, and implemented that feature a year ago. You can click on the cog icon next to your feed and uncheck the "Stack" checkbox.
Sorry, but I don't see no cog. (Using the new feed)
Ah, you are right, the cog is gone in the new feed, sorry. I guess they will need that time machine again.
Thanks for the feedback! Filters are making a come-back soon (:
Have they yet? I don't see an option for that. The stack posts are still really annoying.
Definitely better than before! The new condensed format for "added to project" notifications is perfect. Some of the other stuff is still noisier than I'd like (or maybe just "bigger" -- taking up lots of vertical space, so I have to scroll a lot), but overall, it's much easier to spot the updates I'm likely to be interested in.
If I had my druthers, I'd probably want to not use the GIANT PROJECT IMAGES in the feed. I'd rather use a smaller thumbnail so that it doesn't break up the flow so badly.
And while it's useful to see a few comments inline, again, they take up a lot of vertical flow space. What would be great is to have the comments collapsed, with a button to expand/collapse them.
You might be sensing a trend here... Again, *my* personal preference, but I think a design where all the update items in the feed have *roughly* the same height would flow better. The current "followed/skulled" notifications are pretty good, but even those could smaller, IMO.
But again, it's still way better than it used to be. :)
or maybe a read mor link which expands the particular interested item vertically.?
The hashtag linking doesn't work in the comment boxes in the feed.
I've got entry in my feed informing me that davedarko wrote message into feedback project, but apprently he didn't, recently
Not sure what's the deal here.
it was a reply to an older comment about the scroll down in the messenger
Oh yes, now I can see it. Anyway, the preview in feed doesn't show it.
Another case where item in feedback is somehow misleading
@davedarko wrote comment on profile, but that profile is empty https://hackaday.io/hacker/1225-cboban
if author removed the comment, it should dissapear from feed too.
I'm following project https://hackaday.io/project/7495-vapsy and in the log https://hackaday.io/project/7495-vapsy/log/24990-insulation-and-base-plate
In my feed there is incorrect information that antti.lukats posted the log
--removed image to decrease mess--
but in fact, it wasn't him - it was Christoph. Antti is project "owner", while Christoph being teammate.
Oh yes, he wrote the comment, not log. So, the feed is correct. Please, disregard this, my fault.
Sometimes it happens that the feed never loads, just the "waiting" frame with animation appears (just like on the picture that dave posted below), but the actual feed never loads. For me, it happens once in a every few dozens of refreshes, hitting F5 again cures it and feed loads in a few seconds.
Not sure ifi t was mentioned here or on group chat - looking at this http://imgur.com/eBVvR8n
I can see that dave wrote commant to log, but I have no idea what is the project name and who started it, so I have to click. It would be nice to embed this information into the feed.

I love the new feed, though I have two comments on it:
1) I'm following @davedarko and his log https://hackaday.io/project/7496-mmr-70-cheap-radio-module/log/24635-program-progress is in my feed, of course. There is *more* button on the bottom of the picture, expected to uncover the rest of message, leading to https://hackaday.io/log/24635#j-discussion-34904 but it only throws 404 error. Not sure what's wrong here.
It should lead to https://hackaday.io/project/7496-mmr-70-cheap-radio-module/log/24635-program-progress or short form https://hackaday.io/project/7496-mmr-70-cheap-radio-module/log/24635 It looks like "/project/number_name" string before "/log..." is missing in the link.
2) The other guys mentioned the loading speed - yep. unfortunately it's not exactly lighting fast. It takes two or three seconds, Firefox 40.0.3 for Ubuntu here on mediocre dual core machine.
Thanks! The link should be fixed soon. As far as the loading time, we're working on methods to optimize the data--it's taking longer because it's showing a lot more information.
The same empty frame is the one that on my computer stays gray for a few seconds, each time the stream page is opened, then it's populated.
The test was made on Chrome, with a PC good enough for CAD (32GB RAM, 4 cores at 4 GHz, Raid 0 HDD, etc.), a 10 Mbps uncompressed Internet download speed and a wired LAN.
we're loading feed with ajax call and that box is loading indicator. does this happens to you for both, private and global feed ?
i checked again and now it loaded after 3 seconds, but before I lost patience after 10 seconds... it was my private feed.
