What´s behind the cog wheel symbol in the timeline feature?

There are three options:
1. Echoes
2. Splashbacks
3. Default timeline news

I´ll explain them in the follow-up spouts

1. Echoes:
If you switch it off, you won´t see spouts that are echoed. Only original spouts will appear in your timeline. Upside: there will be less redundance in your timeline. Downside: you might miss things, because spouts from non-followings that are echoed by your followings escape your notice

2. Splashbacks
Splashbacks (derived from flashbacks) are a Spoutible-specific feature. A random spout from Spoutible´s past will pop up in your timeline. It has a green "Splashback" symbol top left. Upside: fun factor. Downside: sometimes confusing if you don´t realize it´s from waaaay back.

3. Default timeline news
If you switch it on, the news sources you selected in the account settings will be inserted into your timeline. Switch it off and it doesn´t happen.
