Great feedback, as you suggest there is no one size fits all solution. Perhaps the DM approach (with ability to opt out if you don't want it) is the way so you don't miss long form posts by people you follow.

I think we'll dedicate the next Habla design meeting to this topic, is the next big milestone for Habla.
