Make it easier to find quality older posts
I have started looking back on the top posts of all time...
There is a lot of good stuff in there, but it's very time consuming for several reasons:
- The site itself is pretty slow..
- There are a lot of posts that are time bound and could be archived.. the ones that repeat themselves frequently...
Either an advance search or admins archiving pages in a way they won't show up on top pages could improve that..
Or some other list automatic or manual of posts worthy to read regardless of date... - There isn't an easy paging like numbered or date bound or similar where one could continue where he stopped this back scanning...
Just saying there is a lot of hidden value that might relatively easily be floated up..
Thanks for the feedback!
For me the site also feels pretty slow at times (not always). It usually works ok, but sometimes pages take 10s+ to load.
Do you profile page load times?
I sent you an email with video on the site speed..
Had a 40sec site load while loading others quickly...
I did learn that opening new pages/tabs is way slower than browsing with one :/
The pages are very heavy and they affect each other somehow :(
I've moved some relevant posts into groups (which is a relatively new thing). The hope is that this will reduce the need for repeat questions. I can only really do this for posts in 2019.
Are there any particular (types of) posts that you find useful?
I'm not sure what the common thing amongst the better posts..
Some are long post or links to long posts
Some are just relatively unique
Some are high disccousions questions and answers type due the formatting of the site makes these hard to consume and participate. Some collapse feature could help for example
