What do you think, if the service icons were not coming back would having the duplicate detector with optional service priorities (where you can pick, for example, FriendFeed as priority and thus other services dumped under Related Entries) be a solution?

I can see the reasoning behind hiding the service icons but I'd be happy with this solution. #betakoltag-sg-gen

Thanks to the magic of Greasemonkey I can get service icons showing up in the stream, so while it's annoying that they're not there, it's not so big a deal. But if the full set of service icons aren't restored on user pages, there's no way to really rectify that.

I'm kinda changing my mind about the icons. If the icons are not visible then you interact with each post without discimination.

In the old FF, most commented on FF posts and less so on Diggs, for example. Now that you can't see the icons people might ignore this? Just a thought.

Kol... My thoughts exactly. As per Thursday's demo, each post is treated equally no matter what the service

Yep, methinks so too. Gosh, it's a hard one to decide.

You know, some content needs to be discriminated against. I don't see it as desirable to get equal comments on different content. It's also a big pain to filter by service without the icons, because you'd have to manually create a filter for each service, and it's the rarer content types where the filters were most useful.

Perhaps services like iLike and Last.fm should be playable within FF if the track is available? That might have music-related services. It doesn't really help those posts without tracks.

I want to discriminate against links to music and movies if I'm somewhere where people's heads will turn at sudden blasts of noise; or if I'm somewhere with low bandwidth capacity. I want the cues that let me subconsciously skip over stuff I don't have time for. The Greasemonkey script is great - if I'm somewhere I can install it, but I work almost every day at a computer where I can't.

beta is so buggy. the add to list window doesn't scroll. why do they work on live feed when there are so many options they should be working on??

I'd definitely like to see a service priority setting in my account settings. FriendFeed native posts should always take #1 priority if the linked content is identical.

Bump.
