Cent Gets Filters

Easily sort by the newest, top, and live posts and discover which have the largest bounties and seeds.

If you’ve been on Cent long enough, you may remember the good old ‘live switch’ - a switch that was once in the bottom right of the app, and could be switched ‘on’ to display live bounties or ‘off’ to show every post.

The live switch was a feature designed for the handful of dedicated and passionate bounty hunters on Cent, but a few weeks ago the live switch was switched off for the last time in order to make way for seeding and posting.

Many of our newer users have probably seen others mention the live switch longingly, imploring the Cent team to add it back either in the Cent Telegram channel or in a post on the Cent app at beta.cent.co. But beyond that, there have been far more requests asking us to provide filters to help deal with the increasing daily influx of posts to Cent.

Users have been finding it tricky to see new posts before they get buried by even newer posts. The growing numbers of bounty hunters have been struggling to keep up with all the new bounty posts. Likewise sorting - particularly the sorting of later replies to older bounty posts - has become nearly impossible to keep track of.

We heard you guys, loud and clear — and now the answer is here.

All users should now see two new dropdowns located in the top center of the app. Clicking the left tab will give you three filters to choose from: Top, New and Live.

Filters are live baby

Top displays a mix of the latest and greatest bounty posts alongside posts that have received the most seed money from other users. Clicking New (the default setting) will show all posts (bountied or otherwise) in reverse chronological order. And finally the Live filter will display every single live bounty featuring bounties that are set to expire first, so users can get a few final sorts in.

Each of those filters can then be augmented with a time filter to only display posts made within one of four specific periods of time: Today (default), This Week, This Month and All Time.

We hope these updates make browsing on Cent even easier.

Stay tuned for continued improvements over the next few weeks, and most importantly, please keep all of the amazing feedback coming.

Cent on everyone.
