Notes

  1. rammsteincrazy answered: the only things i ever see pinned ARE ads, from orgs or people who want me to do something, so i definitely get rid of them ASAP.
  2. librarianpirate answered: depends on the pin - I often read it and don’t unfollow for it
  3. wounduppenguin answered: I unpin when they’re still at the top after refreshing the page. They don’t bother me, but I don’t know that I’m more likely to read the post

  9. alvinaahl answered: a bit of both depending if there are too many words on first glance.
  10. serendippity answered: disconcerting. It’s an ok idea, to highlight a post, but should fall back into it’s natural place after the first refresh.
