RE: [Utopian] Filter Resteem from User Blog
So it was brought up in discussion that doing it for feeds would make resteems worth almost nothing as a tool for exposure, which I do agree with. My policy there is if I see too many resteems for things I do not like, I simply unfollow. There are plenty of times where a resteem on my feed has led me to some interesting posts after all.
yes but i think there are already dapps that are doing this so eventually will be a need for that here or nobody will use that interface (not only for that reason, this is the least). I have some people 2-3 that may too many resteems but they both quality and loyal users. At the same time 1/10 times a resteem might seem useful to me so i can't unfollow these guys even if they are making my life difficult.
I don't think it will lose it's worth it will simply be a choice. if you have people like you said that led you to interesting post then there is no need and you can always switch it back. I may have no time this day and need to quickly check my feed, i will click to hide the resteems to do so and they again show them!
I see your point as well, mainly because if it were me personally I would probably turn off all resteems (even though I said they have been useful sometimes) :D. I don't know. This is a particularly contentious point among people that are proponents of resteems though, and I'm not sure what the consensus of the Steemit site code owners is. If I remember correctly though, they weren't willing to do it for feeds. I'd have to doublecheck though. This is always something that can be raised and debated though in their issue trackers.
+1 make it optional to work on feeds..
Sometimes you don't
(from Mounds / Almond Joy commercial...)
Tomorrow I won't...
BTW, thanks for your coding @eonwarped. This is a very cool and needed feature!!!
Lol! I feel like I've seen that commercial and I'm not sure why but it is really weird and funny to me.
yes and as i see it it's something that will not be decided now, they have way more serious issues to solve!
