ltopperI am pleased to hear this, obviously, Louis. Your explanation makes perfect sense; y'all's emails to me currently repeat drops in the community I happened to buy the most from so far to the exclusion of other subscribed communities.
To be honest, I'd still rather have the option to switch an extremely straightforward algorithm to send each drop exactly once, but the changes you've outlined would go a long way.

Jude00Totally hear that point. It requires a deeper level of personalization to accomplish that as many members only open their email 1x / week and ideally it contains many of the relevant products which are currently live.
We will certainly look into forking the algorithm for heavily engaged members vs. casual engagement to see if there are improvements to be made where we can balance the needs of both styles of interaction.

Drop Keyboard Club Questions
Hello everyone! I'm looking to join DKC, but I have a few questions. The first day of November has already passed. Will I still get the coupon for November immediately after signing up today (Nov. 10)? What is the definition of Mechanical Keyboard products? Will the coupon apply to desk mats? I believe it should apply to everything listed under this category? For orders under $79, the coupon will be converted to a percentage discount. Will the percentage discount apply to all mechanical keyboard items in an entire order, or it can only be applied to a single mechanical keyboard item in the order? Thanks in advance!

Work around for firmware/configuration update error "command not recognized"
I spent more than an hour attempting to update my Drop Shift keyboard. I'm not sure what has changed, but I was not able to do it entirely from the Drop website as I had previously done. I have most of the keys configured how I would like, but the default LED function was a very bright, distracting, rainbow wave going across the keyboard. Every time I turned the computer on I had to manually adjust the lights how I liked. Using the online version or the locally installed app, you first have to install the QMK XAP interface. You then have to flash your already configured firmware file, which can be done on the Drop website. If you are logged in your last configuration is saved under your account and you can alter what you like, so you don't have to start from scratch. So, following the instructions I selected the appropriate board, entered bootloader mode, but when attempting to flash the file, I would get an error that the C:/Users/Mike C..... command is not recognized...

We recently discovered an issue in the algorithm which generates the emails which didn't prioritize drops that were launching that day in communities you were interested in but perhaps at a lower percentage of interest (based on interaction) than other communities.
As an example, if you were heavily interested in Watches (based on pageviews, purchases, etc..) and then also had subscribed to 13 other communities, we would first try to fill a quota of products based on your interest in Watches, which means you may get 5 products from Watches, which may then bump out a few products of say the 13th community you're subscribed to which could have been newer.
We have a fix coming out for this specific problem in the next couple of weeks and I appreciate your feedback as well as your patience.
In terms of the algorithm, we will also be working on: - Increasing personalization to reduce staleness based on whether or not you've already viewed a drop (to your note above) - Improving the signal inputs which dictate which communities we think you may be interested in - Potentially increasing the number of products that are sent (yes @JessOpals we will be careful to ensure it doesn't get overwhelming, and sustain a tenant of freshness & relevance)
Please feel free to reach out to me with email suggestions via this thread whenever you like.
