The suggestion is to have a "Your Feeds" page accessible from the Home tab. This would show all your feeds and ONLY your feeds.
This would be really helpful to people who make several feeds a day, want to check on old feeds that are no longer visible from their profile (i.e: more than 20 feeds ago) or just want to delete and/or manage old feeds.

~~There could be a small down arrow with a drop-down menu that gives us the option for deleting the feed, just like we see on the notifications page.~~ If the total number of feeds exceeds what can be displayed on a single page, there would be a "Next Page" option, just like in the hashtags search utility.
I've got 2 screenshots to depict what this feature could look like.

Image 1 -- Image 2

Update from screenshots:
[a] Instead of a drop down, there could be an 'x' button that serves as a delete-the-feed option. Instead of the page loading everytime you delete a feed (like in the profile page), there could be an option to batch delete whichever feeds are to be deleted and also a "Save" button to apply changes just above the "Next Page" link. The selected feeds would be greyed out or marked with an icon. Clicking said icon makes it normal again. The feeds (selected or not) would stay on the page until you click "Save".

[b] You'd receive a prompt if the "Safe Mode" is enabled from the Miscellaneous settings.

Awesome idea! Would be good to have an X in one of the corners, to make deleting old feeds faster, and maybe a failsafe, so you don't delete feeds that you wanted, such as a prompt, and "apply changes" button at the bottom :)

Also, maybe an option to show all or something, to reduce the lag when you delete a feed, and the first from the next page moves to the bottom of the current one :)

Nice idea total support. Nice for people like me with 1000s of feeds a day.

And, better than this, there could be a "your posts" options in the filter in the notifications tab.

@Squill: Like the live updates when your Pd is updated when you interact...? Nice. I'll add them.
I was about to question how the "Save" option would work with the 'next page' option, but it's cleared up now. xD

I hadn't thought about the formatting tbh, just talking and not really thinking xD

@Squill: Something just occurred to me. If there's a save option, the feeds shouldn't just disappear from the list when delete is selected. Else, they'd have to reload without saving to get the feed on the list again. So I made some changes to the idea.
Also, the live updating of feeds from the next page wouldn't work for the above reason since the deleted feeds would still stay until Saved.

@Suvichan: Oh sorry! I missed that since you typed after your previous post. xP
That's a nice idea, but I believe that'd be for another suggestion.
Also, wouldn't it be redundant? You can certainly see more feeds on your profile page (or the "Your Feeds" page if this suggestion is implemented) than the notifications feed. That idea (viewing all your feeds on a separate page) is the core behind this suggestion.

Yep I think this Saknar's suggestion is a more tailord version of the notifications page specific to the users, so their profile is a more appropriate place for the link :)

You can already see your feeds (and delete them) on your own profile, so I don't see why a new dedicated page is necessary for that?

Yes, the userprofile doesn't show your oldest feeds and it's a bit tricky to mass-delete them; but I think there are already suggestions for both of these issues :o

Because that box is tiny :p

Even deleting one or two feeds is a pain, especially on mobile! Maybe this suggestion could be a replacement, if it gets enough support?

@Riako: The Profile page shows only the 20 latest feeds. And you can't delete older feeds unless you make room by deleting a feed from the latest 20 until the feed you want to delete pops up in the latest 20.
Also, consider this: A person has deleted several feeds and now their current latest 20 feeds are the ones that they'd like to keep. In such cases, said person cannot look at their older feeds for the reasons that they want to.
Possible reasons: A raffle without a specific word or a hashtag | Deleting an embarrassing or old feed that they regret making | They posted personal information long ago, and want to delete them | One of their feeds had a big discussion and they want to look at the comments for nostalgia or other information |
These are just the reasons I could think of at the moment. I'm sure there's more.

Well, the mass-delete option was an add-on which would make it easier to manage stuff. The core idea is the separate-page-for-your-feeds page. Besides, you're the Duckmin. You've solved several challenging coding... challenges before. This could be a challenge if the suggestion is decided to be implemented.

Update: I didn't know the ideas were suggested before. I searched a couple of pages. I'd like to link you to a suggestion that's about having a search box for searching individual categories instead of the entire forum database, but I don't have the link right now. xD
Also, like Squill said, deleting the feeds on mobile is quite tedious with the scrolling.

I agree with all the points mentioned by Saknar.

100% Support tbh, I always use mobile and I'm scared to go back and delete my feeds.

Support. Suggested earlier that a 'Your Feeds' filter would be nice in a similar feeds post.

What's gonna happen to Bulbasaur?

@Buumee : Could you link that to me? :0
Also, this isn't about a filter, because you can't see more than 20 of your feeds anyway, unless you click "Show more" for several times.

"Next Page" or "Show More", both are likely to be same only. but, show more is better. In it the page will not refresh and instead more feeds will come on the same page.

@Suvichan : I was actually referring to the "Show more" button in notifications page.
But if you're thinking about "Show more" for this suggestion, I think it'll get too cluttered. Also, I believe it'll be complicated when combined with the idea of having a "Save" button... I'm not really sure how to explain this. I'll wait till I get a better way to say what I'm trying to infer.
