The site founders are firmly of the opinion that content is best found by following users who post and share content that is interesting to you. Thus, the functionality of "following" experiences greater development. I largely use "global" because unless you follow lots of disparate users, your feed ends up being a cul-de-sac of information... and if you follow lots of disparate users, your "feed" doesn't really reflect your interests.
