Fun.News is our site focused around keeping you up to date with the topics and stories that matter to you. You can think of News as your own personalized news aggregator, allowing you to choose the topics you carry about and the sources you trust.
Feeds
As a user, you have 4 default feed options for community: Front Page, Home feed, All feed & Interests feed.
The Front Page is a personalized aggregator which will show you the top stories for each of the topics you follow on News.
The Home feed consists of everything you have followed on News, whether that is a topic, a subtopic, a user, a tag or anything else you can follow on the site. Content will only show up here if you have decided to follow it.
The All feed shows you all the content on News regardless of your interests or what you follow. This feed contains everything the site has to offer and while not customized to you, allows you to get a pulse of the site at large.
The Interest feed consists of content which pertains to the interests you set for your profile on fun.app. Using the keyword system, we will select content that pertains to your interests. You can adjust your interests from this feed or narrow down which interests you want to see content from by selecting specific interests at the top of the feed. You will also see all the keywords associated with each of your interests in the right sidebar of the interest feed, allowing you to access the keyword page.
Each feed on the network can be controlled by the user futher using our sort, filter and post size options located at the top of the feed.
The "Sort by" option allows you to choose the preferences by which you want your content ordered. The options are:
- Hot: The most upvoted of the recent posts (Number of upvotes with time decay)
- New: The most recent posts (Chronological order)
- Top: The most upvoted posts based on time period (Number of upvotes)
- Rising: The new posts with the most momentum (Number upvotes right after posting)
- Controversial: The posts with the most controversy (Number of upvotes and downvotes)
The "Filter" option allows you to choose which type of content you want to appear in your feed.
- Filter by post type (allowing you to see only the type of posts selected)
- Allowance of NSFW content (choose if you want to allow or omit NSFW content from feed) *This only appears if you have allowed NSFW content in your account settings
- Allowance of AI content (choose if you want to allow or omit AI content from feed)
The "Post Size" option allows you to choose how the posts in the feed will appear. You can choose from full sized cards, condensed view type, or titles only, which will simply change the amount of space each post will take up in the feed. You can also choose masonry which will change the feed from linear to a mosaic style feed.
Topics & Subtopics
Content on News is sorted into Topics and Subtopics. While you can post without selecting a Topic or Subtopic, we highly advise you use them because it will help your content reach more people.
Topics and Subtopics are created by the site admins and serve as a means of content categorization. You can follow any Topic or Subtopic on the site, meaning content pertaining to that (sub)topic will appear in your home feed.
Channels
Channels are custom feeds you can either create yourself or follow. Channels allow you to group different content into personalized feeds which group related content into a singular feed, eliminating the need for you to check each of them individually.
For example, you might want to create an art channel, which contains a photography community, a painting community, a couple of your favorite artists and a tag or two relating to art. When you view this community, you will see a feed comprised of just this content.
Channels can be private or public. Private channels are viewable only to you while public channels can be discovered, viewed and followed by other users. Your created public channels will appear in the right sidebar of your profile page.
Collections
Collections are a way for you to save your favorite content from the site. You can simply save content generally to your "My Bookmarks" collection, or you can create your own collections which work like save folders for content.
Collections can be private or public. Private collections are viewable only to you while public collections can be discovered, viewed and followed by other users. Your created public collections will appear in the right sidebar of your profile page.
