Could we have an alternate layout so older posts stay visible longer?

Posted by Sarbajit Chakraborty in General on the Big Photo Hunt community board, .

Ken, I have a request -- I love that your exceptional project is growing so big so fast! As we are having so many posts every week, having a vertical scroll makes older pictures "disappear" faster and faster every week. This is more a problem, especially when I'm checking the website out on my mobile. I feel like this makes some amazing photographs not get enough love over time. Is there any alternate layout, that you think might work better?

I don't have a very specific suggestion to be honest, but just a thought. I think one BIG pro of the setup you have now, is that it clearly shows the message that the photographer wants to convey, so I do absolutely love that.

Just a thought?

Hey Jeet - Great one!

This is something that I've been thinking about and trying to get my head around lately because as we grow ( 🙏 ) I want to make sure that photos get the right visibility and it's easy for everyone to organize. I think you picked up on something that is going to become increasingly more important as we continue.

That being said - I’d love to hear everyone’s thoughts.

I'm all ears for any ideas that come to mind. If anyone reading this has ideas please chime in - like what you would want in a perfect world.

Better yet what are some pain points that you're having when you're viewing the feed of photos now so that I can figure out what I specifically could focus on to improve things.

But bottom line: yes. I’ll start thinking about this seriously. Thankful for you, Jeet, and all of you!
