# Content Types

On daily.dev, there are different types of content that you can consume.

Here are the different types of content that you can find::
- **Articles**: Read articles from your favorite tech blogs and news sites.
- **Videos**: Not just articles, but also videos from top-class tech YouTubers, directly on your feed!
- **Squad posts**: Read posts shared in one of our many squads. Some of them are public and some of them are private.
- **Collections**: Collections are an AI-powered feature that groups together all the news that has come out on the same topic from multiple sources and creates a concise, complete summary of what’s going on.

## Articles

Articles have been the first type of content that daily.dev has supported: You can read articles from your favorite tech blogs and news sites.

Some examples: freeCodeCamp, DEV, Vercel, and many others.

![daily.dev articles](https://github.com/dailydotdev/docs/assets/18360871/00f49469-3018-4644-970a-4b07ecb366fd)


Remember that to have a better experience, you can filter the content that you want to see, by setting up your feed: [Set up your feed](https://docs.daily.dev/docs/setting-up-your-feed/filtering-content-feed)

### How are Articles formed?

When our search engine detects a post that is an article, it’s automatically grouped into one post/card, with a brief summary of the article (called TLDR: Too Long Didn't Read).

### What can you do with Articles?

You can like, comment, upvote, and share the articles with your friends, (for example in a squad or on social media) and you can also read the original article by clicking on the card.

Ah and you can also save the article to read it later, by clicking on the bookmark icon.

To read more about it, check the [Bookmarks section](https://docs.daily.dev/docs/key-features/bookmarks#importance-of-bookmarks) documentation.

### What if I don't like an article, or I think it's inappropriate?

If you don't like an article, you can downvote it, and it will be removed from your feed. You can also report it if you think it's inappropriate.

Check more here about [Blocking tags and sources](https://docs.daily.dev/docs/setting-up-your-feed/blocking-tags-sources)

## Videos

daily.dev now supports videos!

Yes, you heard it right! you can now watch videos from top-class tech YouTubers, directly on your feed!

Some examples are: Firehip, Theo, Primeagen, and many others.

The cool part is that you can watch the videos directly on the daily.dev feed, without having to leave the app! Cool, rgiht?

Apart from that, you can still have the daily.dev experience of liking, commenting, and sharing the videos with your friends!

## Squads posts

A post on a squad is not that different from an usual post, and it can also go on the main feed. The difference is that it will also be visible to the members of the squad.

![daily.dev squads](https://github.com/dailydotdev/docs/assets/18360871/ae0af05d-b97e-4900-8c1f-9ab9318ed44d)

### What is a Squad?

A Squad is a group where you and other developers can come together to learn and interact on topics that matter to you. You can think of Squads like any other online group but geared specifically towards developers.

On Squads, you can share knowledge, ask questions, and engage in discussions, all within a private group of your peers.

### Learn more about Squads

For more details, please check the [Squads documentation](https://docs.daily.dev/docs/squads/creating-your-squad).

## Collections

Another type, the newset one, is the Collections.

They are an AI-powered feature that groups together all the news that has come out on the same topic from multiple sources and creates a concise, complete summary of what’s going on.

![daily.dev collections](https://github.com/dailydotdev/docs/assets/18360871/71a4b3ea-16f8-427a-804a-7f57589e78bd)

### How do you recognize a Collection?

Collections are marked with a special label, so you can easily recognize them.

![daily.dev collections](https://github.com/dailydotdev/docs/assets/18360871/cdc18716-7b60-4b36-a958-47d3bfc6bfa8)

Original? No. Effective? Yes.

### How are Collections formed?

When our search engine detects two or more posts that talk about the same topic, they’re automatically grouped into one post/card, with a brief summary of the topic.

Collections take all the news that has come out on the same topic from multiple sources and creates a concise, complete summary of what’s going on. As new articles come out, the Collection is updated so that it gives you the latest overview of everything you need to know.

- If you want to read more, Collections display the sources they’re based on, so that you can read the original.

- You can subscribe to a collection for a notification every time it’s updated so that you always know the latest!
