GitHub Dashboard Feed Page Updated for Better Performance and Consistency

GitHub has enhanced the /dashboard-feed page to align with recent improvements made to the homepage “For you” feed. This update offers users a more consistent and performant experience across GitHub.

What’s New

Faster, More Up-to-date Events: The updated dashboard-feed utilizes GitHub’s latest feeds infrastructure. Users will notice improved freshness and reliability in the events displayed.
Refreshed Look and Feel: Events are now presented in a modern, card-based layout, matching the design of the “For you” feed for a unified interface.
Expanded Event Types: The feed now includes a broader set of events, covering announcements, releases, and sponsor activity for improved visibility.
Tunable Recommendations: Users can refine their feed recommendations by selecting the “See less activity like this” option, tailoring the view to their preferences.

What Remains Unchanged

No Filters: Unlike the “For you” feed, the dashboard-feed page does not offer filtering controls.
Chronological Ordering: Events continue to appear in chronological order, with the newest first, consistent with the update from February 14, 2025.
Same Location: The dashboard-feed is still accessible at github.com/dashboard-feed.

Reason for Change

Transitioning to the latest feeds infrastructure brings improved event freshness and reliability, and prepares the platform for further enhancements.

Rollout

The update is rolling out gradually following this announcement.
