Other work has shown that while the ability of light to produce a phase advance contributes to its clinical efficacy, this is not limited to subjects who are phase delayed to start with. Rather, it is the size of the phase advance relative to one's sleep rhythm that is most important, with the optimal response achieved with light given 8.5 hours after melatonin onset or 2.5 hours after the sleep midpoint, defined as the midpoint between sleep onset and time of awakening.[Cit](https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.31887/DCNS.2007.9.3/rlevitan?scroll=top&needAccess=true#)

When you subscribe to a Smart List, all the posts from the accounts on that list will show up at the top of your screen, as a feed. That’s the “firehose”, nothing removed. By default, Smart Lists you subscribe to also show up in your For You feed. **In For You, we only show the posts that have engagement (likes, reposts, replies), so you won’t see *all* the posts from that list, just the best ones**. That’s a super simple algorithm (“only show posts from this list that have at least 2 likes, replies or reposts”).
