Abstract

Embodiments relate to a user interface (UI) that displays a feed of content items to a user. The content items in the feed may include content related to a same or similar topic, such as content items related to a recent political event. The interface can include an interactive slider on a scale that permits the user to adjust the displayed content according to an attribute described by the scale. More specifically, content items are assigned an attribute value and the location of the slider modifies the selection process for content items so that content items having an attribute value corresponding to the location of the slider are selected and displayed in the feed.
