"bluesky has starter packs. ergo, the fediverse needs starter packs."

we had the means for decentralized account recommendation in mastodon years and years ago. you could feature other accounts on your profile. like a blog roll.

of course, I think it's been completely eliminated from the actual profile page anymore.

and we've had folks - curators - maintaining a few different directories of folk who wanted to be found associated with the topics they wanted to be found under for many many years as well.

fuck if I understand why we feel compelled to chase someone else's marketingspeak at every opportunity.
