Abstract
A social networking system provides a content feed to a client device associated with the user of a social networking system, the content feed including a plurality of content items. The social networking system identifies a read section and an unread section of the content feed. The social networking system receives a request for a subsequent content feed from a client device associated with the user. The social networking system identifies new content items that are associated with users of the social networking system. The social networking system generates a current content segment that includes the new content items and the unread section of the content feed, and generates the subsequent content feed by inserting the current content segment before or after the read section of the content feed. The social networking system provides a portion of the subsequent content feed to the client device.
