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?

I don’t think it’s the same. Given that every time I refresh I see a new feed.

Ouu crazy. Never tried that.. (feeling dumb)

Then it gets more interesting.. how refreshing a feed can create a new popular feed altogether?

Just a FYI your post is in my Popular 😅

It's same for everyone (most probably).. so yes it's on my feed as well! :)

I had the same question when I interacted with one of the GV team members. What I have been told is there is a logic which actually considers the number of likes/comments/clicks/shares in certain period of time on the post.

@Aragorn_urf_Maverick interesting...! do they calculate it regularly or what? or just consider it for the first few hours...?

One thing I feel is.. it's not completely algorithm based.. and some human intervention is there.. (check their API 👀)

Also people who recently joined or have created less posts are more on popular..as compare to older.. even when I started GV my posts were usually Popular (with just 2-3 likes🙂) so I think* that is one factor..

What else?

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 😭

Has this happened to you?

You uploaded or wrote about an incident / joke/ meme on Grapevine and a friend/family (who don't know your identity on GV) send the exact same incident / joke/ meme

Are users of GV increasing?

It hasn't been a long time since I joined, but up until a few days ago, when I used to refresh GV, I rarely used to find any new posts. Lately, I always find a new post?

Seems like GV is growing 💜
