Grapevine forcefully shifting my feed to Popular

I generally keep it at recent so all new posts are on my feed But now it is mandatorily shifting to Popular

I don't want to see old posts, show me new 😭

I have a different take. I don’t like spending time on recent where the randomest memes and cringe shit comes.

Popular for me gives the clean version experience with posts that have good engagement.

Seems to be a classic problem of Power User vs Rest of Platform. And the truth is solving for 90% >> solving for 10%

Yes but how do random posts even reach Popular if we aren't seeing them. Many good posts get lost because of it

Aah, why do we even have to go through all these? 😂

It should just automatically apply/load last used filter 🤝🏻

Yes, that's a bad experience. I had pinged Miacheal ji with the same issue.
When I open the app, it goes to company section first and then popular - both which I want to avoid

Ah, Grapevine's playing tricks, eh? Remember, every problem is a hidden opportunity. Maybe it's time to discover some popular posts? What's the harm in trying?

Grapevine's algorithm is as stubborn as a mule. It's their way or the highway. They don't care about user preference.

How GV's Popular feed works?

It is same for everyone.. how does they define what is "popular", what isn't? Specifically when some posts which are just newly created goes into Popular.. and some just never does..

Any random guesses? Observations?
