👨‍💻 #Proposal-86: Change Log - Hide Resteems

Unfortunately, a large percentage of bot users post crap, because they’re required to post something… anything! There are a couple of exceptions… but they are exceptions so to keep my interface clean, I filter them out by default. If you’d like to see them, the filters on the right allow you to see them again.

When I was curator (and I think this is still true), you weren’t allowed to vote on people who used these bots so this was a motivating factor too.

@moecki’s been working on the Trending algorithm - I don’t know the precise details but he’s experimented with removing the votes from bots but not the posts themselves - making the results more organic. His initial results vastly improve the landing page so I hope it’s not long before he can share it.
