Some communities will have a deluge of posts, which tend to astroturf the main feed. I loved the feature in Apollo that let us mark a sub as a favorite to make it easy to get to, without subscribing to it and having it hit the main feed.

    Not really. For instance, on Apollo, I used it for /r/politics. Huge, extremely active sub that would drown everything else out in the main feed.

    Not the right usage of the term, astroturf.

    Oh, for sure. I just wanted to mention that. I meant no offense.
