Great! Thank you all.

Thank you so much 💖
Thanks to the DEV team for moderating and inspiring the community! You did a great job in challenging times! Congrats to everyone and thanks for featuring me again! I'd rather (also) share my actual reading list with everyone. Is there a permalink URL to make it public?
Excellent post, Ingo, and good thinking! There's not yet a way to do this, but I love that thought.
I have a feature request that I've written up about this — to give due credit, it's more of a collection of other folks' feature requests and suggestions than an original thought — and I do think having the ability to organize and share reading lists would be a powerful addition to our community. It seems like a really good, human way to balance our feed algorithm!
Anywho, thanks so much for sharing your thoughts on this and also for putting in the time to manually create such an awesome list of recommendations from your reading list. I'll keep advocating for the updates to reading lists; I think there's some big potential there!
Congrats everyone!
Aww thank yall so much!
Wow what a surprise! Thank you!
