The "Discover" feed isn't really the best feed to use as a main feed as it's going to throw in a lot of posts from just random normal people.

The best thing you can do is just follow the same people you followed from Twitter for your feed, you can use the Sky Bridge extension to find them easier!

Thanks, man. I'll check it out and see how this works! ^^

I just disabled "show replies" and "show reposts", and haven't seen anything non-art related since

sonazith.bsky.social•99 days ago

Hm, maybe I should just focus on building a feed of people I follow rather than trying to use the discover feed then. I'll also look into the repost settings, thanks!! ^^

That's the thing, don't use discover tab. You can join or set up feeds/lists and use followings but that takes some work to set up and can be pinned to the top of your feed. Just search for feeds that fit your interests and like/follow those feeds.

Forgot to mention you can go into your feeds and pin/unpin what you want to appear at the top of your feeds/home so what you normally browse is more easily accessible.

I'll check it out and see if I can set up something that works for me. Thanks!! ^^

There is "The 'Gram" Feed just with pictures from followed accounts I think?

sonazith.bsky.social•99 days ago

I'll give it a go and see if this is better, thanks ^^

I never use the Discover tag. No matter what, I use the Following tab and don't focus on anything outside of it. Of course there are functions in place that allow you to customize multiple feeds to curate what you have on your timeline, but I haven't messed with those yet.

Same here.

I'm also a madman who hasn't disabled anything in my following tab too, so pics? See 'em. Replies? See those too. Reposts? Yep!

The downside is that it takes quite a time catching up on things.

The upside is that I get to see new artists those people follow that I can follow as well!😜
