   @evan the more I see this boosted the less I like the “clogging” language. Though it doesn’t seem to be effecting the results much ??

     @jph you're not alone; a couple of other people said they didn't like "clog".

     I was trying to capture the feeling of a feed that has too much stuff that I don't want to read.

     I thought about "pollute" but that made me think about graphic violence or other really terrible things.

     "Fill up" doesn't work very well, since a feed can't get full. It's always moving!

     Any suggestions?

     @jph "flood" is really good!

     @evan yeah I get the sentiment and it’s definitely hard to come up with something that doesn’t feel overly negative. I probably would have gone with “fill up” myself but you have a good point there. Flood maybe? ? Tricky one for sure.
