We launched a well-needed update to the Feeds UI last week. Here’s a overview of what’s new:

  1. An Image for each item in the Feed. The image is either supplied by the DataSource, or else Metro will try to find a suitable image.
  2. Link destination domain for each item in the Feed — for example “(youtube.com)” for YouTube links.
  3. Filter bar. Many people requested the ability to filter the Feed to see more relevant items. We listened!

Check out the Tech News Feed here to see it in action:

There are some more updates in the pipeline, we’ll be highlighting them in a future post when they’re ready. For now, feel free to get in touch with us at our Telegram if you have any feedback, suggestions, or just want to chat.

Ciao.
