how would I add the scriptsky+ to my feeds? or is it just goig to be there since I follow scriptsky?

theartofcharts.bsky.social•44 days ago

So - in your home menu, click on Feeds -- > Discover New Feeds --> and then just search Scriptsky+ and it'll pop up. From there you can subscribe - and if you pin it'll be like its own tab at the top of the app (bit like a tabbable browser).

That's on desktop.

Something to note is sometimes some feeds will go down or have a slow refresh - especially feeds that are built off of hashtags not lists.
I think that's 'cos of resourcing issues on Bluesky due to:
1) Spikes in new users
2) Recent updates
3) Other stuff on their end about server space allocation

Even though the feed will say to contact the user who built it (if it goes down), in practice, there is not much they can do except contact Bluesky to say 'hey my feed is down' - or possibly play around with the feed to have it look at only more recent posts.

Users who create custom feeds set their terms, but they don't control their resourcing. E.g., the Scriptsky feed was down yesterday for a while. I tried building a backup Scriptsky feed using inputs from a shorter time period - but that didn't work either - but now Scriptsky's back up and fine.

This is more detail than you need! But I saw stuff yesterday that seemed a bit confused about feeds and what powers users who create them do and don't have: afaik I don't control server resourcing for the feeds I've built - I can limit inputs (e.g. filter to posts in the last x hours...).
