How related prompts work

These ideas match the topic and text of the prompt you’re reading. Your muted topics and hidden prompts still apply.

Your reading, use, saves, upvotes and usefulness feedback help shape the mix. Your interests fade over time, and fresh topics keep finding their way in. Recently used prompts appear less often. “Not interested” hides a prompt until you undo it or clear your browsing history.

Guest interests last only for this visit and reset when you reload or leave. Sign in to save a mix that follows your account. Only prompt IDs and activity are used, never your custom prompt text.
