The current iteration of the DEV home feed in our new a/b testing strategy is showing some really nice improvements. We're finally turning the corner on providing a more enriching and relevant feed.
This was experiment one which did not beat the current standard, but the new one likely will.
We're not treating this in any purely quantitative way, the main thing is that the feed be able to provide a quality, constructive experience and less click bait — but honing in on better practices for objective measurement is a huge step forward, and I am very excited!
Accessibility First DevRel. I focus on ensuring content created, events held and company assets are as accessible as possible, for as many people as possible.
I have high hopes for this second version, weighting on comments should hopefully reveal the interesting articles / the ones where the author engages (although has any consideration been made about people who disable comments due to mental health etc? Just thought that now! To be fair I haven’t seen how much weight has been added to comments so it might not matter!)
Either way mega excited for the results 💪❤️
