Hello, all.
We have received a significant amount of request asking to limit / remove the influx of posts from users sharing their health / wellness scores.
We beta tested a rule that was setup to help reduce timeline clutter.
Specifically, this rule would eliminate the influx of post from individuals posting health / wellness scores. Such as photos of a users V02 Max, sleep score, HRV graph body battery, stress graph etc. As many of the post have a score : graph with little to no context. This results in a feed full of images of metrics with no substance. Note, this does not apply to traditional post.
Examples include:
- “So close! *insert sleep score number 99/100*”
- “Is this a good V02 Max? / Finally achieved my goal V02 Max”
- “a typical day *insert stress graph*”
- “Here we go again *Insert HRV graph*”
The goal:
We want a community that is easy to navigate, encourages conversation, and inspires one another to #BeBetterThanYesterday. We understand that can be challenging if the timeline is flooded.
While the auto enforce did seem to help I have since disabled it.
Is this something we, as a community, would like to see strictly enforced? Please cast your vote!
**Note** the rule is currently up, in our list of rules, and we welcome any and all feedback on the best way to implement it should a revision of how it’s written be needed. We would love to hear from you.
The outcome of the poll will decide if the rule is or is not made permanent.
Cheers.
