How Do You Read DDF?
« on: October 20, 2020, 07:02:53 PM »
How do you read new posts on DDF?

I.e. when you go to forums.dansdeals.com what do you click next? How do you read recent posts?

Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

  • I get an email alert for new threads in topics of my interest (same goes to replies of threads I'm subscribed to)
  • I have a gmail filter labeling all of these
  • Skim through it when I have the time

I rarely go to the forum homepage, I usually go directly to new replies.

No I just removed these

It's called quoting the part of the quote that's relevant to my statement, not misquoting.

It's a dead end. It's just there so you feel like you can quit whenever you want. They never let you leave.

First
I click "view the most recent posts on the forum".
Check out the first page or two click on anything that catches my eye.

Then head over to just schmooze > general discussion > tech talk in no particular order and check any thread that seems interesting to me.  Once in a while I'll head over to the deals or covid board.
My Tapatalk notifications don't always work.

Replies/quotes/mentions
The feed that comes up on tapa (includes people I follow and other posts)
In the rest, I look at threads that seem interesting.
GS
Tech
TR if there are new ones/updates
Amazon (jack6941 and abebee's threads always)
Deals
JS (not the the politic ones)
And the others once in a while (I make a point to avoid the covid-19 one)

1.Beeline to just shmooze
2.Then to destinations guide and trip planning
3.Then to COVID board to see what else cuomo did wrong
4.Look out for any new threads @CountValentine makes
5.Once in a while tech talk and general discussion for unique thread titles (which got me to this one)

Truth is when I was doing a lot more credit card stuff I was all over the credit card board and basically didn’t even discover the js thread until later
nothings impossible- the word itself says Im possible
