and that is the most recent blogs. I did some digging and I found some third party resources that compile them using the blog IDs. But there must be a better way on codeforces itself.

  • You can see important announcements on the home page

  • You can search for any topic using search.

  • You can view the top posts in the TOP tab.

  • You can view the latest comments in the recent actions bar.

But you CANNOT view the most recent blog posts. Is this a deliberate measure to avoid distractions? I wonder how the top posts get all those upvotes to begin with. If a good coder wants to publish some educational resources or reading material but is a first time poster, how do they get visibility?

Can someone please help and please Mike if you are reading this, please implement this much needed feature!

There are clear BENEFITS:

  • This will encourage more people to write blogs and even necroposting won't be an issue kinda like reddit. Right now only the og users or the ones who's blogs make their way to announcements get traction.
  • There should be an entire history of all blogs ever published by time stamp. This makes searching also easier of the more recent blogs and is very helpful.
  • Extremely good blogs that did not make it to CATALOG will not disappear into the ether after getting taken off from the recent actions or TOP tab.
  • A lot of people do not learn about a topic by searching for it but by randomly stumbling upon it and this will facilitate this discovery for a long time to come

Indeed I guess that will definitely encourage people to write more blogs. And we can learn new things from wide range of different rated people. Like a newbie grasp things differently and a expert differently and so on.....

If you find an extremely good blog that didn't make it to Catalog, you can DM me; if I agree that it is extremely good I can add it. (I also go through all >+50 blogs from time to time to see if I have missed anything).

I agree that discoverability is a problem. I sometimes find good educational content that fell out very quickly as it was displaced by complete nonsense like "i hate enwbies", "pupil in 100 days" and "please debug my code".

      I see an "Enable Management" button visible in the Catalog page, as well as a bunch of buttons to add folders and blogs, so it seems like it's a red coder thing.
