Definitely makes more sense.

But what about adding another option "friends feed" to disable /friends? maybe I don't like to have the friend list because of design reasons around but like to see their feed without logging in (as described above). Hmm... of course I could hack the css to display:none the friend list then.

OK, how about this: We'll only disable access /friends when neither the friends list nor the friends tab are set to visible.
If you're showing who your friends are on your Soup, there's no reason to disable listing their content, and then the URL will work again for you, Malte.

plz undo this, this sucks. I have the friends tab hidden on my soup but use /friends myself often on the road/at work to see what they posted without having to log in. Please let me have /friends even without the tab on my page.

Actually... seems like I don't have the friends tab disabled but /friends redirects to / anyway (custom domain)... check out http://soup.hacksause.de/friends

Hey, thanks for calling us out on that -- we've been aware of it, but hadn't gotten around to doing something about it.

I just made a change in the code so that you can't view /friends when the "friends tab" element of that soup is not enabled. It'll be online by Monday at the latest.

/friends not hideable

Hi guys,
i noticed, that if you add "/friends" to any given soup.io adress, you'll get the friendlist of that soup, even if the owner hasn't maked it visible.
Would be great, if this'll be fixed, or there'll be a real hideable list of soups, just to see recent posts, without marking these soups as friends.
