Thanks for the extra feedback. I like focusing on the tags and interests. Some curation done by the system (or a human) could go a long way. I already get most of my views on the featured stories, so people definitely resonate with being steered where to go.

I want this to be a place that people will go if they're looking for something interesting to read, or if they have something interesting to tell. I appreciate the feedback as it will help me get there sooner!
