Custom newsfeeds on Waivio

Custom newsfeeds are now available on Waivio, enabling users to generate personalized feeds using hashtags, objects, object types, and users. These newsfeeds are shared on the Hive blockchain as objects, allowing others to follow them.

To create a newsfeed, simply click on the "write new post" button and select "Newsfeed" from the "Create new object" menu:

Let's create a newsfeed named "Hive Statistics" as an example. On Hive, multiple users post valuable information on the topic, but they use different hashtags. Meanwhile, some irrelevant content may use the same hashtags.

To address this, we will include the hashtags #stats and #data, along with a specific list of users who consistently post high-quality content, such as @arcange, @quochuy, @penguinpablo, @hive-data, @dalz and @dalz.shorts :

After creating and configuring the "Hive statistics" newsfeed, it can be effortlessly found using the search bar on Waivio:

By clicking the Follow button on the "Hive statistics" newsfeed, it will be included in your regular Feed:
