Discovery

About a quarter of every read is deliberately unfamiliar.

Follow the same five labs and the same ten personalities and you end up with everyone else's feed. So we reserve roughly a quarter of each day's slots for items that come from an entity, a source, or a topic we have not covered. It is a rule in the selection code, not a good intention.

When a discovery pick makes the cut it is labelled, with the reason it counted. Filter the list above by Discovery to see only those.

~25%

of every read is reserved for discovery, once the day's ranking lands.

The daily email still holds at 12 to 18 items. Widening the net does not lengthen your inbox, it deepens this page.
