Thing is, it's quite easy to automatically set your (automatically uploaded) rides to private so people don't have to see all your boring as fuck commutes which are essential to record every single day, for the mileage.
That people don't is either because they're dumb, or ignorant, or are just happy to scroll through pages of Morning Ride.
I've had to unfollow some people I know and like as they are serial offenders.
I guess like most social feeds, strava has become saturated with people who will simply fill it with as much dross as possible, since - obviously - having lots of 'content' and 'numbers' is better than nothing.
Private rides don't count towards leaderboards or distance challenges do they? You'd think that since they added the ability to tag a ride as a commute they'd also give the option for others to filter out commutes from their feed, otherwise there doesn't seem much point to the tag.
