Hey Pickful community!

Over the past weeks, we've received valuable feedback from many of you about the homepage experience. This update is the result of your input — we want to use the simplest, most transparent rules to make everyone's browsing experience on Pickful better.

🆕 New "Latest" Tab

• Added a "Latest" tab next to "Following"
• Shows all posts in reverse chronological order — nothing gets missed
• Removes the "one post per user every 10 minutes" limit from the Explore feed, so you see the full picture of what's happening across the platform
• Want to catch up on the latest? One tap and you're there

📋 Explore Feed Content Categorization

This is the key change. Pickful is a Web3 community, and to keep the Explore feed focused, we've introduced a set of lightweight automatic categorization rules:

• After a new post is published, the system automatically determines whether it's related to Web3, crypto, blockchain, AI, or tech topics
• Relevant content appears in the Explore feed; unrelated content won't show in Explore, but it's still published — your followers and the "Latest" tab will still see it

🔓 Rules are fully transparent:

Criteria: Whether the post has any connection to Web3, cryptocurrency, blockchain, AI, or technology topics.

We use a lenient approach — as long as the content has any connection to tech, crypto, blockchain, AI, Web3, DeFi, NFT, or related topics, it's considered relevant.

Pure lifestyle, food, travel, or completely unrelated content won't appear in the Explore feed.

This is not censorship. This is not post removal. It's simply helping everyone see more focused content in the Explore feed. In the future, we plan to let the community vote on categorization rules.

🛡️ Don't Forget the Tools in Your Hands

Beyond the platform's automatic categorization, every user has the power to actively manage their own feed:

• Report — See content that violates guidelines or is low quality? Tap the menu on any post to report it and help the community maintain content standards
• Block — Don't want to see a particular user's content? Block them and their posts will no longer appear in your feed

Automatic categorization + user-driven moderation, working together to put your browsing experience in your own hands.

🏠 Homepage Layout Changes

• Topics Square — Moved from the tab bar to the "Discover" section in the menu (App retains the bottom tab entry)
• Hot icon — Removed from the homepage for a cleaner interface

These changes make the homepage more streamlined and the core experience clearer.

📢 Starting in March, all product announcements are now available in Traditional Chinese to better serve the global Chinese-speaking community.

Thank you to every community member who shared feedback — your voice makes Pickful better. We'll keep listening and keep iterating.
