The Popular feed showcases trending content using our ranking algorithm that balances recency, traffic, and community engagement.

Ranking Factors

Posts are ranked based on multiple signals:

  • Unique reads - How many developers have viewed the content
  • Community engagement - Upvotes and positive comment interactions

  • Quality metrics - Engagement rates and content assessment scores

This algorithm surfaces the most valuable and timely content for the developer community.
