Okay. Would just pm this but I wanted to see if anyone else thinks my request would be helpful.

Here is a screenshot. Down toward the bottom, next to blackbootz' link, there appear the words 'shared by BrainBurner [plus]3'. These words are awesome. Why? Because I can click on that '3' and see this amazing screen, one of the most helpful features hubski's got.

I love being able to see exactly who has shared what. Because I know you all and your general interests, it often tells me more about the link than the title does.

The feature request is: why doesn't this 'shared by username [plus]3' show up next to every post on my feed? Presumably it appears next to blackbootz' link because I'm not explicitly following the poster, domain or tags, so hubski is telling me why that post is on my feed at all. That's great, but take it a step further. I want to be able to see who has shared everything, because I don't just use that feature to figure out why something is popping up on my feed, but as another way (the main way) to curate which stuff I click on.

Thoughts? I think/hope this is a pretty easy extension of existing site functionality.

EDIT: I should mention that obviously I know I can access the shared-by screen by clicking on the link, but I'm looking to eliminate that extra step.

You are right about this.

I'm hesitant to have it show on the feed just because it tends to get really cluttered. I have another account that only follows a couple people for testing, etc and it look really busy when every post in the feed has that information.

You can see it from the post page by clicking on the number in "by flagamuffin 1 day ago ยท shared by: 2"
