Feed recommendations for multi-platform event feeds

A method for recommending feed sources in an event feed, comprising:

• at an event feed service in communication with an issue tracking system and a collaborative document system:
• generating an event feed comprising a plurality of feed items associated with a first user, including:
• generating a first feed item associated with an issue being followed by the first user, the issue associated with an issue ticket in the issue tracking system;
• generating a second feed item associated with a user-generated document being followed by the first user, the user-generated document stored in association with the collaborative document system;
• generating a recommendation feed item comprising a selectable element associated with a second user not being followed by the first user, the selectable element configured to cause the second user to be followed by the first user upon selection by the first user;
• causing at least a portion of the event feed to be displayed to the first user as a list of tiles including:
• a first tile corresponding to the first feed item;
• a second tile corresponding to the second feed item;
• and
• a third tile corresponding to the recommendation feed item;
• detecting a selection of the selectable element in the recommendation feed item;
• generating a fourth feed item associated with the second user;
• and
• causing the fourth feed item to be displayed to the first user as a fourth tile in the event feed.

A method for recommending feed sources in an event feed, comprising:

• at an event feed service in communication with a software system:
• generating an event feed comprising a plurality of feed items associated with a first user of the software system, including:
• generating a first feed item associated with a second user being followed by the first user;
• and
• generating a second feed item comprising:
• a first selectable element associated with a third user of the software system, the third user not being followed by the first user;
• and
• a second selectable element associated with an issue not being followed by the first user, the issue associated with one or more issue tickets in an issue tracking system;
• causing the first feed item to be displayed to the first user as a first tile in an event feed interface;
• causing the second feed item to be displayed to the first user as a second tile in the event feed interface, the second tile including the first selectable element and the second selectable element;
• in response to detecting a selection of the first selectable element:
• subscribing the first user to the second user;
• generating a third feed item in response to receiving a notification of an activity of the second user;
• and
• causing the third feed item to be displayed to the first user in the event feed interface;
• and
• in response to detecting a selection of the second selectable element:
• subscribing the first user to the issue;
• generating a fourth feed item in response to receiving a notification of a change to the issue;
• and
• causing the fourth feed item to be displayed to the first user in the event feed interface.

A method for recommending feed sources in an event feed, comprising:

• at an event feed service in communication with an issue tracking system and a collaborative document system:
• selecting, from a set of feed item sources, a set of candidate feed item sources, each respective selected feed item source having a respective confidence value that satisfies a first confidence condition, wherein:
• the feed item sources in the set of feed item sources include:
• issues stored in association with the issue tracking system;
• user-generated documents stored in association with the collaborative document system;
• and
• users of at least one of the issue tracking system or the collaborative document system;
• and
• the confidence value indicates a confidence that the candidate feed item source is relevant to a user;
• and
• in accordance with a determination that the set of candidate feed item sources includes:
• a threshold amount of candidate feed item sources;
• and
• at least a first feed item source having a confidence value that satisfies a second confidence condition, causing a recommendation feed item to be displayed in an event feed, the recommendation feed item comprising a first selectable element associated with the first feed item source and a second selectable element associated with a second feed item source from the candidate feed item sources.
