Along the same lines, the “New” and “Unread” tab have a line at the bottom stating “there are no more XYZ topics”, instead of “there are no more new XYZ topics” and “there are no more unread XYZ topics”
TBH I think the whole new/unread and top/hot/latest distinctions and nuances are very confusing to the average user.
- “Unread” should be just a filter on latest and capture both new and unread
- “Top” is pretty useless
- “Hot” can be handy for the hacker news type of ordering
So basically all you need is Latest and Hot.
Do you have usage data that gives you insights in how much all those options are being used?
