How Reading History Works​

Daily.dev's dynamic feed algorithm constantly updates to show you the most relevant content. When you read a post, it may disappear from your main feed within minutes. Reading History solves this problem by maintaining a permanent record of everything you've consumed.

What You Can Do​

Once you've read a post, it automatically appears in your reading history where you can:

  • Bookmark the post for future reference
  • Upvote or downvote to influence the algorithm
  • Share with your network or on social media
  • Remove from your reading history if no longer relevant
  • Revisit the full content anytime
