UXD: improve For You clustered recs to be more recent
Goal
At the moment, the surface for explore // trending (1st tab) are surfacing posts that are more recent (1 day old, a few days old) which is desired for users. However, the current For You feed / page is showcasing recommended posts that are fairly old.
Quick comparison
What needs to be done
To make the For You feed and recommendations relevant and weight toward recency.
As of now, we are using the clustered-recs logic. However, if we could weight the recommendations such that more emphasis is given towards activity posts created in the last
- day
- week
- month
The hypothesis here is that it would increase engagement / channel subscriptions since users' are more biased toward content and context closer to the present day.
The assumption can also be made that these channels (who's posts are more recent) would be more active on net, and thus would provide a better reason for a user to subscribe, rather than going back to say, 3 months ago to a relevant recommended post, but one which belongs a potentially inactive channel account.
