Summary of Changes

Shows group posts mixed in with newsfeed posts - running under an experiment currently running at a 50/50 split.

Testing Considerations

This is an experiment so you will need to try with different user accounts. If you have any issues try clearing your cookies for the site before login. It may take a few users accounts.

Some users should see posts from their groups mixed chronologically into their latest and top feeds - make some new group posts to test this.

Users on the off variation should see no changes

Other feeds should not change.

Regression Scope

Should really only touch the subscribed feed endpoint but hits the repo that touches all feeds.

Platform Affected (web, mobile, etc)

Web

Developer Testing Completed

Just manually tested. Difficult to test the experiment its-self (spec and E2E) as its nondeterministic - the controller logic is also not testable because it's in an old-style controller.

Screenshots

N/A - just the main newsfeed. Group posts are identifiable because under the username they have the group name.

Does this impact

  • Localization
  • Dark/light mode
  • Guest mode
