Can an alert feature be added, so that we are alerted to when a post is created by handles we like to follow? An option in settings to add handles for me to follow. Else I am left in the dust by the time I read stuff. Everyone has moved on to the next deep state train wreck that happen every friggin minute of the day!

Emphasize before we post, we should check for duplicate posts by using search feature. It's getting ridiculous how much duplicate clutter there is. Put a flashing banner "Have you searched for duplicate posts before adding a new post to the stack?" Trigger the banner when the "Create Post" button is clicked. With a "Disregarded" button as the only acknowledgment to go on.
There has to be IT guys and gals here that would volunteer to do the coding.
Would this not also limit your exposure to lets say topics not normally seeked out or sought after ?
I know it would for myself. One of the major plusses of the net is exactly this exposure to new subjects, at least for me. This is one way to expand my foundational knowledge base.
However I totally get your point. Things moving very fast. We also have to learn to disregard post/info not important to the individual but this is clearly our job to set them parameters.
Yes. Setting the parameters for what is a dupe is part judgement call. The minimum thing we should do is perform a search before creating a post, and go from there. Adding a comment to a recent post on the subject matter reduces the clutter. It is a better user experience to follow the GAW recommendation on this.
