Feature - News2Threads V2
Problem
As it stands, there is a lack of high quality, fast and accurate news on INLEO Threads.
This is not to say that there is none of this happening, but there is a definite lack of quality news.
For Threads to grow as a high-quality news outlet that spurs engagement around highly relevant topics, we need to feed the feed with more high quality news.
New Feature
The new feature would move News2Threads off Discord and onto INLEO Directly. This would coincide nicely with some other features we are working on via slash commands (i.e. /command).
We're adding slash commands for Premium INLEO Users. This will allow this group of users to call on various commands that are built into the UI.
For example "/news2threads [insert-article-link]" could be used by premium users who want to share articles on INLEO as summarized threads + the article link.
I believe putting this on the UI in this way will have two major impacts:
Anything that moves conversation off Discord (centralised) and into Hive (decentralised) has to be a good thing !
Suggestion: could news threads get a colour coded edge or box ? That way we can immediately see them (as long as not too many other colour codes are used).
Could we invite some news organisations to post directly. Maybe even with the DHF funding LEO Premium for them for (say) a year ?
Solution
Outside of simply encouraging users to do this (and we should be doing this), we can also improve the News2Threads AI Engine that we've created.
News2Threads
Right now, News2Threads is a Discord bot where a certain group of INLEO Lions have access to share article links and then have them auto-published on
Threads as a 3 thread-summary of the article + a link to the original story.
I believe this is a fantastic way to share high-quality news on Threads. It allows users to get concise summaries of top news stories without even leaving INLEO. If they are interested in diving deeper on any story they've seen, the link is provided in the last thread.
The problem I see here is that we need more News2Threads Activity as well as More scaling for the bot itself.
We should see more content being published by the News2Threads bots and we should also see more engagement beneath that content.
A feature that could do this is adding News2Threads directly as a feature on Inleo.io.
I am just learning about this. It is interesting.
Yes it is. That is why I did a thread storm for it. We are now to the point where we need to share things as threads.
