Introducing the Media Category (along with a pro-tip)

Hey everyone,

We hit a huge traffic milestone during the absolutely WILD conference tournament weekend. We peaked at nearly 18K page views in a single day, beating our previous high by roughly 50%.

To better organize our discussion, we’ve created the Media Category which will have a more targeted discussion on podcasts, substack posts, and other media.

This category will be hidden from the ‘Latest’ section by default to accommodate and encourage a higher volume of topics posted on the content. Our aim is to allow the Latest section to continue to be the primary routing to our season mega-threads (ie, 2024 NCAA Season) while still allowing focused engagement with the awesome content creators in our space.

As a user, you will be able to customize your ‘Latest’ page as you see fit. For example, you can use the attached instructions to personalize your experience by opting into the Media category or setting up your preferences to only display the College categories.

How to customize your latest page
As a user, you can customize your notifications by following the instructions here:

Please join the discussion, I will seed the category with the discussion thread for the upcoming Water Polo Wednesday episode and a request for ideas on a water polo fantasy league that I’m currently prototyping.

Let me know if you have any questions!
