   @tess I’m super curious about the algorithmic feed and block list stuff! Did you do any reading on it, or is the experience of each just so tangibly good?

     Back on bsky; observations:
     - the dunking and posing has markedly decreased (still the clout chasing site tho)
     - there's still a lot of unreasonable political pontification
     - since most folks use non-algo feeds first (including myself) following a lot of people is just as important as on fedi
     - the option of opt-in algorithmic feeds for specific goals/interests is actually fabulous (the fact that BlackSky exists is genuinely amazing)
     - algorithmic blocklists are *revolutionary*

     I prefer a lot of things about fedi, but I'd *love* to bring in things like algo feeds, starter packs, and algo moderation lists.

     And there is really no technical reason we couldn't have those things here. I imagine we could use a lot of the same code, with an abstraction layer for how posts and profiles are retrieved.
