[User story] Preference articles with images in the "For you" feed
Open, HighPublic2 Estimated Story Points

Description

Background

The current iOS implementation of the "For you" feed frequently surfaces articles without images as the first article in the stack. Ideally if there's an article with an image in the stack, we show it first.

User story

As someone scrolling the feed, I want to see article's with images come up, so the feed feels modern and engaging.

Requirements
  • Preference articles with images for the first cards in each module, or preference articles with images for use in Variants 1 and 2
  • This should apply to all modules within the "For you" feed, present & future
Reference

DB: Here is the code that fetches these results: https://github.com/wikimedia/apps-android-wikipedia/blob/main/app/src/main/java/org/wikipedia/feed/personalization/interest/InterestSelectionRepository.kt#L27
The precise API call, plus all the filtering steps, are there.
