I don't get what is the logic behind the chronological order of postings in the activity feed? As far as one can see, ...

Question

... the messages of won challenges are ordered one after the other. The further you go down in the list, the more the time offset is.

But the activity-feed postings are in between this steady timeline and don't meet the scheme. There are messages which appeared with the timestamp '2 minutes ago', '3 minutes ago', '5 minutes ago'. And in between of them there are randomly spread activity feed with '2 days ago', '5 hours ago'.

Could please one of the developers of this app explain, what is the logic behind this? Are the activity feed postings repeated in a ramdom or regular manner, and what is the frequency?

Answer 1

It's an experimental feature in which feed posts are given higher priority compared to other activity, so that they have better "reach". Some popular/trending feed posts are also shown to a wide range of users (even those whom do not follow you). It is highly encouraged for all of you to provide feedback and your opinion to the devs regarding this change, tell SL what can be done better in order to improve or fix the current state of feed posts.
