Idea: Option to hide the Featured section

[dogweather]

The first page of medium.com is the Featured section chosen by the editorial board, and there's no way to opt out. There's no way to signal disinterest in the articles, topics, or writers; as there is in the following sections, Top stories for you, New from your network, etc.

Are you open to this feature if I submit a PR?

Absolutely! We should definitely be able to do something about that. I would only suggest that if you wanted to hide it, it should be an option instead of an unchangeable behavior, as some people might want to stay opted in.
