Hey, I appreciate the work. No bullshit, it's a great idea, and the way you implemented it as its own C/ is perfect.
That being said, it's too much. It was essentially a wall of nothing but the bot for me. I'm not sure if that's because there was just that much for it to scrape with it being new, if it needs a rate limitation to keep it from flooding, or maybe the list of sources needs to pared down.
But it definitely interfered with accessing human posts by sheer volume. Which is the bad thing about bots.
I don't know Jack shit about how bots work under the hood, but it definitely needs some kind of change to how much it's posting.
Again, I think the idea is great and I was initially happy about it. Thanks for doing something to help us all stay updated.
Thx for the support. Yeah i agree it is a lot but i think thats mostly a byproduct of it being new and thus having a multi day backlog of articles to catch up with.
I have a daily brief in the roadmap to give u a summary of all important things that happened in the last 24hours so that should be far less spammy but i fear that will just give u a giant wall of text.
I also think it will be better once there is some voting happening that should reduce the amount of content u actually see (well at least on balanced sorting)
