Yes that is correct.

But the problem isn’t abusing the tags as such it is more that you have to abuse the tags if you want to get an article to show up enough to get traction (if that makes sense?)

I Love the steps the team are taking, I don’t envy you all as trying to solve biases and abuse in a feed is not an easy task! ❤️

Ah. I see. This is one of the discovery problems we are facing for less known tags (i.e. with fewer followers), similar to new authors having a hard time getting their posts surfaced, albeit of high quality.

Thanks for the extra context. It helps me see what problems you are facing with the feed as an author. 🥰

All I have to say now is welcome to DEV and as your first 2 official posts / features these are great (despite the criticism! 🤣) and super positive steps!

I look forward to seeing what you tackle next / the outcome of this feed experiment! ❤
