pull down to refresh
On the 6th point, I haven’t suggested this before, because I’m not sure it works for all SN posts but it could be relatively simple to implement.
On the ‘hot’ feed some older articles could be elevated with “1 month ago”, “1 year ago”… mentioned above each post. Limited to a maximum of 1 anniversary link appearing per 30 results each day, for now.
Might be a nice test to play around with. Easier to accommodate than a ‘revisited’ feed. Simple because there isn’t enough space up there in the menu anymore, as the site grows.
Duplicate links shouldn't be tolerated if a user doesn't add any additional value. Most of those users doesn't even read the articles when sharing on SN. It's evident in their lack of response when someone comment on their link posts.

100%. Sometimes if it’s dated content, there’s value in resurfacing it. But usually it’s pretty obvious.
In an ideal world they’d be linked, with the original poster being able to claim a % of the rewards.
I guess it’s natural for the ‘recent’ feed of any platform to get more and more congested over time.

Howdy all. How do people feel about duplicate content & links on SN? Are any changes needed?
Currently, a warning shows to the new author indicating a ‘dupe’ link that been posted previously.
Some thoughts:
Reason I ask, is it’s probably one of the only remaining points of friction I have with this site. I wouldn’t want to stop people posting or sharing something valuable, but I think it’s an area that could be improved..
