My Feed

I don't follow anyone, so how do I access "My Feed" under the so-called improvement?

My Feed has disappeared from my menu, pleas update as only way I get any info from who I follow on comments

My Feed has disappeared from my menu, pleas update as only way I get any info from who I follow on comments. Have never been notified when I get a response to a comment?

Just realized "My Feed" was gone, and found this.  Followed the link to "people"; do not like it as well.  There are members I follow so I can be alerted to their new articles, but I do not want to spend time reading all the comments they make. 


Under the old format, it was easier for me to "coast" over the items I am not interested in.  This new format makes me weed through items of no interest to me.  Less focused, more time consuming.


Was the intent here to "pull eyeballs" into more threads?  If so, you can see that annoyance is the flip-side of engagement.

Hi,


There is a box at the top of https://seekingalpha.com/account/people where you can post a StockTalk. This page is now available by clicking "People" on the main navigation menu.

I don't see that box. AFAICT, there is no longer ANY way for me to post a new Stock Talk, other than to merely comment on existing stock talks.


The only way I can find to see my stock talks is from the Stock Talks link on my profile page, but there is no box to post a new stock talk.


It would be nice if Stock Talks was available from the drop down menu under my picture in the upper right.

I must agree with the previous comments on the replacement of My Feed with People I Follow.  Posting the entire comment is too much, I have stopped using this feature since the change.  Please bring back the old My Feed format.

Hi All,


Thanks so much for all the feedback. A few clarifications & updates:


1. There is a box at the top of the "People I Follow" page which allows you to write a StockTalk. It's available on the "Latest" tab as well as the "StockTalks" tab


If you are not following anyone, simply click the Follow button next to one person on Seeking Alpha and this page will load. 

2. If you don't want to see comments and only want to see Articles or StockTalks, you can click on the "Articles" or "Stocktalks" tabs to filter the feed by those content types.

3. Based on feedback, we are going to make a change whereby comments will be truncated on the "Latest" tab.

Hi rjm22,


We'd love to hear more about what you miss from the old "My Feed" and how we can improve the new experience.


Thanks,

Daniel

I miss everything about the former "my feed" on Android. It allowed me to select what type of articles I wanted to see, so I would have "editor's picks", etf ideas, top news, etc all in one feed. Now when I go to "my feed" it is just a blank page that says "look here for the authors you follow", which would be entirely redundant with the "my authors" section right beside it - if it actually worked!! Instead "my feed" stays blank as I've described above, even though I follow several authors. It's been broken like this since you made this website change last year. Except for about a week this month when it mysteriously worked with the old behavior. 


The old "my feed" options are still there. It's ridiculous that this is still broken a year later. What was the purpose of this change? My Authors already does this *exact thing*, so by moving this functionality to My Feed you're just taking away a useful feature... even if this worked properly! And it doesn't even work properly!
