What the title says. I know that you can't turn it off but is it bothersome or is it useful?

I love Flipboard and Blink Feed just extends it. So I'm happy with it.

I like Flipboard but Blinkfeed not so much, mostly because I find it clutters the screen. My Flipboard content only displays when I want to see it, which is when I open the app.

I just made another screen my "home" screen. I still have Blinkfeed of course, but I don't see it unless I flip to that panel.
 
When I first bought the One, I really didn't think I'd have any use for Blinkfeed. However, I've found it to be very useful for feeding me assorted news items at a glance.

I feel exactly the same way. I had wished there was a way to disable it but I've been using it more and more :)

I found it annoying. The first thing I don't want to see on my phone is random news. I want to see the weather, my calender and other important personal information.

I like it, didn't think I would use it but I do. Find myself flipping through it quite often.
 
Those can be selected.

I like it. Didn't think I would. I am doing the launcher with a short cut to blink feed trick. Any one complaining youcant feet rid of it is wrong. Although I find it the only thing I like about sense 5
 
I like it. I used to use flipboard so this is a natural transition. It runs really nice too..I don't know why anyone wouldn't like it :-\
 
I see it as rather a slick background but I don't use it at all and I've long since changed my home screen preferences
 
The only reason i have it disabled right now is that there is either a lack of, or i havent found it yet, an option to edit the feeds to your own personal likings.
 
I like it a lot actually. I don't use it exclusively to get my news, but I find myself browsing it very often when I have a few minutes to kill and want to check out some articles.
