Friends page overload

Gah. Things are getting to the point where my friends page regularly picks up dozens of posts in just a few hours and keeping up with them all is just draining far too much of my time. Something has to change, as it means that other things are not getting done. Two options present themselves: firstly, I could just defriend a whole bunch of people who I don't really know, secondly, I could just read my friends page filtered. To help me decide, here's a gratuitous poll which I may or may not take any notice of. Enjoy.

Poll #176376 To de, or not to de - that is the question.
Open to: Friends, detailed results viewable to: All. Participants: 33

What should I do about friends-page overload?

Trim down your friends list - it's the honest thing to do.

Use filters, then folk can still read your protected posts.

I don't care what you do to them, just don't defriend me!

I guess trimming the list is most honest, but as I'm a filters-and-protected-posts gal myself, it's what I tend to rec to others.

Perhaps try what Tine does and make an announcement "I'm trimming; if you're trimmed and want to be able to read my friends locked posts, reply here and I'll add you but probably not continue to follow your journal, no hard feelings, blah blah."

*nods* That makes a fair amount of sense - the responses seem to be fairly evenly split thus far.
