An update has been rolled out to address this. More improvements to come.

Added Swurf codes to easily transfer your Swurf to any other device or browser without an account

From the (...) menu -> Your Swurf code (shows up after a few swipes)

Thank you to everyone who participated in the launch so far and the great feedback/discussion

Thanks - the set of pages in the feed and on which topics is constantly growing and being molded, so as more swipes/engagement occurs more coverage and interesting topics find their way in.

Yes - there is a content filter in the (...) button. Always improving the protections on this - if you see a page that slipped through you can report it from the same menu.

This is where the name "swurf" originated from! Swiping X Surfing :)

Thanks for the bug report - being added. As for the learning there are a few components at play but ultimately can be thought of as an interest crawler where pages with higher engagement branch deeper into their on page links and similar work from the author/root. As for what your shown, this is based on your interests, the crowds interest, and some other mechanisms in realtime.

The site was made for desktop originally. Working to resolve the mobile issues. On mobile you can tap the far right side of the screen and swiping is a bit more reliable.
