Right now there are filtering options for All, Reviews, Status Updates, Reading Updates, and Gradings. However, right now these are only single-select. For situations where users care about more than one type of activity but not all types of activity, allowing multi-select would be a huge improvement.
The ability to choose which status updates to include would be a nice to have, but not as important as the first bullet. For example, some people may want to see when someone finishes a book, but not when they mark it as Owned.
Remember the previous filter selection by the user. Right now it remembers if you have selected Me, Following, or Global, but the filter isnât remembered.
I think the default view I would like to have is to displays:
new books and reviews
Status updates from me and people I follow
My own reading updates
That would require a ânew book addedâ event, the ability to filter by âme, following, allâ and the ability to change the default filter (I think that would be bullet point 3 in the OP).
Thereâs a lot we could do around activity filtering agreed. I could imagine a âcustomâ feed which is a saved filter setting of your own preference. That could solve some of your wants I think.
I like this idea too⌠but we do add over 20 unique book series a day, so it is a bit of noise. You can view it in the gallery although I can see how itâd be convenient in the feed.
