The "Featured" Bar
Clavicus Vile
Not sure what I'm asking for here, but I couldn't not say anything. Primfeed recently added a "Featured" bar at the top of the home page. These featured ads seem to directly go to SLURL links, so even if you have the creator/store/owner/account etc. blocked, this will have no bearing on the Featured bar. Some of these stores use AI or employ other unethical practices, and regardless of where you stand on the subject of AI, engaging with that content should always be optional. We shouldn't be required to see the Featured bar, or at the very least, it should connect to accounts, so as to be sensitive to block features.
Primfeed needs support from its users to thrive and grow, but locking the ability to hide Featured behind a paywall- in essence, forcing me to see ads from people I have blocked unless I pay to get out of it- really doesn't make me wanna get premium. These kinds of self-curated filters or tools that are essential to quality of life on Primfeed shouldn't be paywall-locked.
