First of all, thank you very much for maintaining the round-ups for such a long time!
I have enjoyed reading through the round-ups but I must say recently (-ish) it's been less interesting. What makes it less attractive for me is the presence of a lot of content that is repeated from previous weeks. I mentioned this before, but that was just a comment in passing.
Some ideas/suggestions:
- Could the "In case you missed it" sections be visually collapsed by default?
- Could there be some system to determine how long a "long-term" post should stay up? E.g. job postings could show for 10 (maybe fewer?) weeks by default, unless the related issue is closed on GitHub earlier. Articles, tweets, game releases could probably have a shorter time to live, perhaps suggested by the author in the round-up issue?
- Could the postings be organised with references to the round-up they were originally suggested? That would also make it easier to automate the "time to live".
The latter two points seem like more major changes, though ultimately might lead to less work in maintaining the round-ups?
