Some people think I don't know what I am doing, but a lot of planning has gone into Spoutible. News feeds are an example of months of research to understand what users wanted. News outlets don't interact with users; they just post content. We realized we needed the content rather than the accounts.

Not only did we solve the news problem, but we did it better than everyone else, and we aren't finished yet. Some of you want us to have more media attention, but I would argue it is good we have flown under the wire for this long. We have had months to fix the issues with Spoutible and improve it.

First impressions matter; if we had media attention in February, we would've lost users who wouldn't have returned. This is what happened to Threads. They were not ready for prime time, and many of their users were unhappy and moved on. Have patience; slow and steady will win the race.

Getting less US centric news (if you can do it without hitting the link laws that countries like Australia and Canada have implemented) would be great. Unfortunately US politics does affect all of us, but most of the US media is very insular. BBC, ABC Aus, Guardian would be nice additions

Sorry, did not see Guardian was an option, but it would be good to see if it is the US, UK or Aus edition or if it is a global stream
