A feed filter that kept 20 of 1,000 posts
Four questions per post, 97 milliseconds and 1.2 cents.

98% of my feed is junk. Now I don’t even see it I built a filter that reads my feed for me. It runs on Jev - a model that doesn’t generate text; it just makes binary decisions, in milliseconds and for pennies. For every post, it evaluates four questions: Is it relevant to my niche? Does it provide real value? What format is it (breakdown, news, ad, meme)? And does it make loud claims with zero proof? Out of 1,000 posts, only 20 remained. 97 milliseconds per post. 1.2 cents for the entire morning. The most frustrating takeaway, nearly half of my feed was ads and memes, not the creators I originally followed for substance. An hour of mindless scrolling turned into five lines over breakfast.
