FWIW I don't like the new feed (yet). I don't think removing items is a good way to go about this. Certainly make the UI such that recommeneded items are more obvious, maybe roll-up the 'boring' items in the timeline, but don't remove them all together :/
Also at the moment it's just confusing, since the news feed isn't ordered chronologically. I assume it's ordered in a reddit/HN type way, but that's certainly not obvious.
Maybe I'll get used to it idk. At the moment it seems quite random.
I think they need a method to feedback also - upmod/downmod - show me more/less of these types of updates/from this person.
