'Favourites' post v old feed

Im liking this new favourites feature. Ive added the people i consider friends and the people whose post i enjoy and now their posts are at the top of my feed so i see them first. Its making my SW experience so much better.

BUT...... I'm surprised ( pleasently) at how much some of my pals do actually in a day!
SO..... it begs the question, when my feed was set to friends previously, why wasnt SW showing me these posts???? Ive seen posts from a number of friends who seemed to have fallen off my radar, yet they are actually posting 5 or 6 posts a day???? Yet, i havent seen their posts in my feed for months.
I wonder why that was??

Anyway.....i request please peeps. If we correspond on post, and you like seeing me about ( and im totally aware some of you dont or arent arsed either way) would you be so kind to favourite me so im not talking to myself when i post.....lol🤪

Thankies friends. X
