Feed Reset
An attempt to change a recommendation feed by unfollowing, clearing history, selecting not interested, or deliberately interacting with different content.
“My feed was all breakup videos, so I did a feed reset and started liking cooking clips.”
People perform a feed reset when their recommendations become repetitive, upsetting, irrelevant, or too tied to an old interest.
The term grew from user strategies for retraining recommendation systems on TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and similar platforms.
