There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".

  1. Filter out News Sources in Feed

    I use the built in news feature because it's both pretty and convenient. However, although some may like it, I am not interested in viewing all news sources included in the service. I think many people would also appreciate the option to select (or deselect) various stations from the list to be shown.

  4. Let us choose specific news interests, example, sports, I want to know news about American Football, but not about Soccer.

    Let the user choose specific news interests, for example, I want to see news about Sports, but not every sport, I see a lot of news about Soccer but I'm not interested in that sport.
    This could work adding subcategories in the news interests.

  7. Allow user to block "news" sources in feed

    Take a look at Google News. They allow users to block sources. Until you get this feature for the feed, many people won't use it

  10. Separate page for news

    I prefer more how the news page used to be separate from glance and timeline.
    Lately I barely use Glance, as it is mostly hidden behind the the News page.

  14. News market Hong Kong in English

    For Hong Kong there is only Chinese in the news market. A lot of people living in Hong Kong only know how to speak English. Having an English version would be very helpful.

  16. The news panel should sync with the MS News app for local news and personalized results. Showing me S.F. and N.Y.C. local buzz is lame.

    Sync my news choices from the news app, so any product brings my news choices with me just like all of the other seem less experience decisions. This includes the news on my edge browser home page etc...

    The news sources are not so much an issue, but most of the news feed I see is talking about sports I am not interested in (everything not UFC) while ignoring the one I like (UFC), and flooded with Hollywood celebrity news and restaurant scenes in mega coastal cities. I want news based on where I live, things I like, and a…

  19. I want to get more Videogame news on my feed. I used to have them with the original phone launcher, but now I get everything BUT Videogames.

    Let me choose Videogames as my area of interest, like Google does.

  20. Add access to the Text Selection Menu from within the News tab. I so much miss access to translate, web-search and ordinary cut/paste.

    As in Edge and other browsers and in many apps. When you highlight some text, a Text Selection Menu is shown, with choices as translate, search, cut/paste etc.
