Unlike many of Medium’s other feeds, which include content recommendations from the Medium algorithm and our in-house curation team, the Featured feed highlights all Featured stories from publications that a user follows in the order they were featured. This means readers will never miss out on seeing a publication’s Featured story.</p><p id="820a" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ng nh gz ni b ht nj nk nl hw nm nn no np nq nr ns nt nu nv nw nx ny nz oa ob gs bk">The Featured feed is another way that Medium is investing in both publications and human curation. Publication editors play an important role in understanding what kind of content is uniquely valuable to their readers. By giving publication editors more control over the content that followers of the publication see on Medium, we are excited to help even more stories find the right audience. To learn more about Featured stories, check out the <a class="af oc" href="https://help.medium.com/hc/en-us/articles/28221990368791-Publication-story-featuring" rel="noopener">help center</a>.</p><p id="d9ad" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ng nh gz ni b ht nj nk nl hw nm nn no np nq nr ns nt nu nv nw nx ny nz oa ob gs bk">P.S. We’ve had the Featured feed turned on for Medium staff for about a month now. What started as a staff-only prototype made its way to production pretty quickly after we had the chance to experience it. Trust us when we say that it has become a go-to source of reading material for many of us!</p></div></div></div></div></section></div></div></article></div><div class="ab cb"><div class="ci bh fz ga
