You can now click on the number of posts under each story on the News tab, and you'll see what people write about that story. Mind that whose posts show up depends on people's privacy settings, you won't see every post that contributed to the story trending.

Where is the news tab? I've never seen one before.

Leon Overweel

@Gargron thanks! Can we also search for any URLs to see what people are saying about it?

@Gargron I get error when I click on Explore in relation to any post. Some time I'll have to explore that situation more.

@Gargron on I’ve always wanted this regarding the news tab- always seemed that it should be easy to join the chat about an article from right there.

@Gargron So 🌙 = Opt out of being linked in News tab?

(That's supposed to be a moon, hoping I didn't accidentally post a piano)

Eugen Rochko

@mcc That's one way to granularly opt-out for a specific post, but even a public post won't appear unless you're opted in to being featured in discovery algorithms from your Privacy and Reach page.

@gargron It looks like this is a proper URL search now. Awesome!

Can we make the regular search understand if something is a URL, and return the same results? This currently gets nothing.
