RE: Steem School Episode 39 - Steemit Distractions You Need to Get Rid Of
That's a great point. I'm looking at my feed and seeing lots of stuff that just seems to get in the way. One option that I would like to see them add is the ability to NOT see resteems. Some people resteem constantly and it clogs my feed. There are certain authors I really want to read and it's hard to find them though the chaos. I do need to pare down a bit.
You could use GinaBot, to track your favorite authors, until you pare down who you are following. You can read more about the bot @Ginabot. I'm working at reducing the number of people I follow. I'm going through the list and checking out their blog to see if I still have a reason to follow them. I check out at least five blogs a day. But, in the meantime GinaBot, makes it easy to check my favorite authors posts. GinaBot also provides me with useful information to track my progress on Steemit.
Yes, I use GINAbot! I really like that I get real-time updates on what is happening. Makes it so much easier to respond to comments and know what's happening in the part of the Steemit world where I'm hanging out. Thank you for the suggestion!
That would be a nice option, just cut it down to 10-15 you want to network with and put the rest into bookmarks.
Like that your Steemit feed will stay clean and you can access the other followers via categorized bookmarks.
To be clear, you bookmark the feeds of the authors outside of the 15 and you just go down the list checking them periodically?
Yes, keep it to 10-15 followers and bookmark the rest.
I like that idea better than just unfollowing. There are some that I'd like to know what's going on still. Bookmarking could do the trick. Thanks.
