Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and method for providing shared content collections. The program and method provide for receiving, from a first device of a first user, an indication of first user input to share a content collection between the first user and a second user selected by the first user, the content collection comprising at least one media content item, the second user corresponding to a contact of the first user; storing the content collection in association with the first user and the second user; receiving an indication of second user input to share the content collection with a third user selected by the second user, the third user corresponding to a contact of the second user; and associating the content collection with the third user.

Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and method for providing permissions for accessing shared content collections. The program and method provide for receiving, from a first device associated with a first user, an indication of first user input to share a content collection between the first user and a second user selected by the first user, the content collection comprising at least one media content item, the second user corresponding to a contact of the first user within a messaging application; storing the content collection in association with the first user and the second user; providing the first user with a first set of permissions for accessing the content collection; and providing the second user with a second set of permissions for accessing the content collection, the second set of permissions being more restrictive than the first set of permissions.

Providing permissions for accessing shared content collections

Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and method for displaying content feeds within a messaging system. The program and method provide for receiving, by a messaging application associated with a user, user input corresponding to a request for a first content feed, the first content feed comprising a first plurality of media content items provided by one or more friends of the user; providing for display of the first content feed; determining, by the messaging application, that display of the first content feed is complete; and providing, in response to determining that display of the first content feed is complete, for display of a second content feed, the second content feed comprising a second plurality of media content items provided by one or more content providers to which the user subscribes with respect to the messaging application.

Displaying content feeds within a messaging system

Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and method for displaying a profile from a content feed within a messaging system. The program and method provide for receiving by a messaging application, first user input corresponding to a request for a content feed, the content feed comprising a plurality of media content items; providing, in response to receiving the first user input, for display of the content feed; receiving, by the messaging application, second user input of a predefined gesture performed with respect to a first media content item of the plurality of media content items; determining, in response to receiving the second user input and based on the first media content item, to display a public profile associated with the first media content item; and providing, based on the determining, for display of the public profile.

Displaying a profile from a content feed within a messaging system

Systems, devices, media, and methods are presented for scaled delivery of media content. The systems and methods assign a set of proposed designations to a plurality of media content. The systems and methods select a set of media content from the plurality of media content based on the set of proposed designations and distribute a subset of media content of the set of media content to a selected user of a plurality of users. The subset of media content is presented at a computing device associated with the selected user. The systems and methods receive a set of indicators for each media content of the subset of media content. Each indicator represents an interaction with a media content of the subset of media content. The systems and methods cause presentation of an interaction notification at the computing device associated with the selected user.
