What’s my Feed?
Your Metafy Feed is the rolling conversation on your Dashboard, where Metafy Students and Experts can post and interact. You can post, like, follow, and comment on what you see.
How do I follow someone?
You can follow someone in two ways:
Go to their profile and click the Follow button.
Click Follow directly on your Feed, next to their name.
Both options will allow you to unfollow at any time if you wish to do so.
What should I post about?
Anything goes!
Share your gaming moments,
Spill the tea on the latest drama, or
Chronicle the thrilling saga of your pet hamster’s attempt to conquer the digital realm.
You get the idea.
What kind of media can I post?
Text,
Images,
Links, and
Embedded rich media (say, from Spotify or Reddit. We are working on more types like GIFs, videos, and emojis).
Who can see, react, and reply to my posts?
Anyone who views the Metafy home page can read the Feed.
Posting, reacting, and replying requires an account.
Can I make a post visible to certain people only?
Not for now, but you can message someone directly if you don’t want the conversation public.
Is there an easy way for me to view/access my own posts?
Not yet, but there will be with Feeds 1.1.
🎉 Coming Soon!
Does the Feed update automatically?
For now you’ll need to hard-refresh. However, there is an ‘X New Posts’ count at the top of the Feed on its way with Feeds 1.1.
🎉 Coming Soon!
Can I see my followers (or who I am following)?
Sure, head over to Following (under your avatar) to see who you’re following, your followers, and who you have muted.
Is there an algorithm that determines the order of my Feed?
For now we’re keeping it simple: All posts are shown in chronological order and will be in one main Feed (called Global).
If you follow a person or a game/community you will also see posts in the Following Feed.
📣 Note: A comment bumps the whole post to the top of the Feed.🎉 Coming Soon: More categories, such as Profile Feeds and Community Feeds.
Can I block someone?
You can mute a user.
Click on one of their posts,
Click the 3 dots to the right of their post,
Click Mute, and
Confirm.
Unmute someone on your Following page. Blocking is not a feature yet.
How do I report a post?
Cick the 3 little dots at the top right of a post and click Report.
Reporting a post will give 4 options:
Inappropriate or offensive,
Spam,
Just didn’t like it, or
Something else.
Your report will be submitted to the Moderators for review.
