Recently, I noticed a phenomenon while browsing the trenches—almost every popular discussion is about various news updates. Price fluctuations, project updates, regulatory developments... News content definitely has its market, but this also drowns out other types of discussions.

Have you ever thought about creating a news popularity index? For example, based on how often users like, comment, or share a particular news item, the system could automatically calculate a heat ranking. This way, truly valuable information can surface, and the trenches won't just become a pure news aggregator.

Additionally, layered content display from different dimensions is also quite important—opinions and discussions in one category, breaking news in another, in-depth project analysis in yet another. This allows users to quickly find what they want to see and prevents information overload.

I wonder what everyone thinks—does anyone also feel that the trenches need to optimize their content distribution logic?

Why do I feel this is just a false demand? Sorting by popularity still favors news, and no matter how detailed the categories are, it can't change what the market pays attention to. Honestly, it's still about making money through information asymmetry.

Damn, the trench now is just a news robot, really annoying --- Layered display of this idea is good, but honestly, users still have to filter themselves, the platform is still lazy --- Heat index? Isn't it still traffic is king, with big V's garbage information still topping the list --- I agree, in-depth discussions are all drowned out by price trends, there's too much spam --- Instead of creating a heat index, it's better to just mute those who only post price updates --- The problem is no one wants to see in-depth analysis, everyone just wants to quickly cut the leeks --- This idea is fine, but I'm worried that after the platform changes, it will turn into another form of content monopoly --- Actually, just adding a tab would be enough, why is it so complicated --- The reason why in-depth discussion voices are small is because no one wants to spend time reading, market issues are not product issues

The news bombardment is too outrageous, I'm already tired of it. --- I support categorization; otherwise, it's really hard to watch. --- The popularity index sounds good, but the key is how the weighting is calculated. --- Instead of optimizing distribution, it's better to first tackle those copied and pasted articles. --- What I want is high-quality discussion; right now, there's nothing. --- Same feeling! The trenches are now just news machines. --- Layered display can indeed solve the problem of information overload. --- The problem is that even if optimized, no one might watch it; user habits are hard to change. --- Compared to the popularity index, I prefer a blacklist feature. --- This suggestion hits the point; it depends on how the platform responds. --- Exactly, I hate the feeling of being overwhelmed by news.

The trenches have indeed become a news machine, deep discussions are dead, and it's all just quick news blasts.

Ha, news bombardment is indeed annoying, but I think implementing categorization is also hard to execute. --- Basically, the main issue is that the algorithm needs to be changed. Right now, it's all about chasing trending content farms. --- I agree that in-depth discussions are being drowned out, but users are also too lazy to scroll through everything. --- Layered display sounds good, but I'm worried that in the end, the news channel with the highest popularity will still dominate. --- Instead of creating a popularity index, it's better to let users set their own feed. I just want to see technical discussions. --- The trenches have long turned into news aggregation, but the problem is that no one wants to read analyses slowly. --- I actually think news should be at the front, since everyone is chasing coin prices. --- The idea of dividing by dimensions is good, but don't turn it into a bunch of empty, cold channels.
