I second @kenny's request. Please build something that helps with discovery and re-discovery of deep-threaded replies. (For now I'll try more quote-casts).

I love this place but I find it quite difficult to locate and carry on deep-dive convos here, especially in response to long-form writings.

By the time I manage to read a long essay or thread and return with a substantive and thoughtful response, everyone has moved on, and nobody will even see the discussion by then because reply-bumping doesn't happen anymore and the algo won't resurface it.

Kinda defeats the point. It's discouraging to have the algo operating at cross-purposes to one of the things I love most about FC: eavesdropping on (and contributing to) group convos among brilliant people. There's so much value in the social context.

I've unintentionally left some interesting conversational threads hanging because I can't find them easily... and even if I did, I know replies won't be visible to anyone but me and the person I respond to.

I can understand not listening to my feedback cuz I come off as a complaining broken record

but pls consider Danica's thoughtful and well written case below 👇

intersubjective mechanism design @ poidh.xyz - come chill /poidh + follow @poidhbot

If I put a lot of thought into a buried reply I’ll manually recast it, though it doesn’t seem that the algo picks it up so we’ll.

the other tragedy of the following feed is that recasts are useless and don't resurface anything into it

if you recast something I want to see it!
