Geo — filter and preference

Geo has two settings. They do different things.

The filter decides who is even in the search. It has three values:

• Global — every project.
• Countries — only projects in the markets you picked.
• City — only projects within radius of one city.

The preference is a city you pin. The preference doesn't change who is in the search. It changes the order: projects near that city come up first, the rest still come after them.

The preference only does its job under the Global filter, where everything is in the search and ranking has room to matter. Under Countries the search is already narrowed to a few markets. Under City the search is already narrowed to one city's radius — the city is the filter, not a preference on top of it.

Set the filter first. Add the preference if you have a city you care about.
