Y'all need to curate your feeds better. My Discover is usually pretty good and mostly stuff I enjoy. My only closing is that if I follow them directly, like Scalzi, it shouldn't be on the Discover feed too

lydzrose.bsky.social•90 days ago

That post you like is going to come back in style.

edfisby.bsky.social•91 days ago

Discover feed priorities:
1. Infinity reposted political meme
2. Dude showing off his bulge
3. Obese furry art
4. "I like food"
5. Cat
6. Dog
7. Joke

Have you tried following less fatfur accounts?

Bro you are telling on yourself

dogydaydreamz.bsky.social•91 days ago

bro i just get random photography shit who are you following for that to be on ur discover tab 😭

chimerist.bsky.social•91 days ago

You have to get a good amount of shitposters followed first as well as enough news reactors either followed or blocked/muted.

Then it starts showing you the B-listers that post obsessively despite having nothing to really promote.

Look into starter packs and blocklists.

dogydaydreamz.bsky.social•91 days ago

ig i just curate my shit pretty well, as i mostly get weird old computer info, archival stuff, and various queer artists doing their own thing on my feed. may help i treat bsky more like tumblr than twitter tho, lol.

chimerist.bsky.social•91 days ago

I get it. I think the way it's set up though, you have to actively curate as you try to find more stuff or else it gets stale.

I've just been following anyone that seems like a real person and interacts with me in any non negative way.

dogydaydreamz.bsky.social•91 days ago

honestly completely fair.

cassiecashmere.bsky.social•83 days ago

I’m pretty obviously a furry but Discover kept suggesting human foot fetish photos. Robots don’t understand context, they just go off of keywords.

rachelgdoteth.bsky.social•90 days ago

I saw this on Discover

emilbarr.bsky.social•90 days ago

Some people needed the reminder that posting is a curse, not a gift.

I will vote in person... Always! Thank you for understanding.

Wow nice post! I found this on the discover tab

dankkushrenada.bsky.social•89 days ago

Mine is like imagine breaking up with a toxic ex and moving to the other side of the country to get away from them but when you get settled in over there the only thing anybody you talk to wants to talk about is gossiping about that toxic ex (y’all definitely know who the ex is in this metaphor)

volition-newlove.itch.io•91 days ago

jokes on them i've only posted bad and yet i've ended up in there seemingly

eyesinside.bsky.social•90 days ago

You want followers? You make an accurate Twin Peaks post.

What is the point of social media

norcalgardenofeden.bsky.social•90 days ago

To play and frolic with strangers in the comments.

thecl0wnfather.bsky.social•90 days ago

I just got rid of the discover tab for the Likes of Likes after I followed enough people I like. Honestly working out a lot better, except for that someone who keeps liking a very specific kind of art I Do Not Like and I have no idea who it is LMAOO

buddhistdruid.bsky.social•91 days ago

It got you my follow lol, some evils have their perks

robinafox.bsky.social•90 days ago

Gee it's too bad that you have to look at all those posts that bore you. If only there was a way to avoid doing that. 🐑🐑🐑

Something something this meme labeled all good posters protect everyone else from the discover tab something something

ianras.bsky.social•91 days ago

Try to post just good enough to get into what's hot classic and then die on the vine.

There needs to be a button that’s like “exclude from discover tab” because it’s like those goblin drums from Baldurs Gate

epvh.bsky.social•90 days ago

I’m here from the discover tag. That’s it. Have a good day.

zechharvey.bsky.social•91 days ago

…imagine if that was a work fridge and the denizens kept leaving really passive aggressive messages for each other up on it.

nullrend.com•91 days ago

The most accurate description of it

thirdeyeerisian.bsky.social•90 days ago

Discover tab for me is 90% people I follow... :/

artsy-star-maiden.bsky.social•90 days ago

It's starting to become a circle for me too xD not even following everyone on their just I know Their follows aswell 😂

thirdeyeerisian.bsky.social•74 days ago

Hey I've noticed that the What's Hot classic is a lot better for finding new folks to follow. Scrolling past unlabeled hog *is* a requirement, though.

darrenkirschman.bsky.social•91 days ago

I almost exclusively browse the discover tab

bilbosothernephew.bsky.social•90 days ago

I mean, I saw this post on the "discover" tab, so...

novakorpov.bsky.social•91 days ago

t0sun.bsky.social•91 days ago

i think rachel maddow did a crime upon us and the discover tab is how you learn

The dark fridge, if you will. the backrooms fridge

the discover tab said “hey fuck you for this one, we’re putting it right up here with the other ones, suck it”

fairlylocalized.bsky.social•91 days ago

Yall get good posts?? my discover tab is:
-"happy birthday!" and a picture of someone I don't know with 10 likes
-"drink some water, you are loved" 2015 Facebook positivity affirmations
-the same mark cuban post from an hour ago

I keep saying "see less like this" but alas

segnis.bsky.social•90 days ago

Mine is like 60% politics and I don't engage with any of it. The "show less often" button doesn't seem to work at all.

I had to subscribe to a custom discover feed. Works way better but only updates like every 3 days

careyp123.bsky.social•90 days ago

Omg. SO MUCH Mark Cuban. I’ve been testing if “see less like this” function does anything & it appears that it does not. Every 3rd post, MC. I don’t follow him or anything. Why are they pushing him so hard? I’m not into following people just because they’re billionaires.

thedimpsler.bsky.social•90 days ago

You’re gonna have to block Mark Cuban my dawg.

sireofsorrows.bsky.social•90 days ago

Tbh it's kinda entertaining to see the dumb shit he posts but also quite infuriating

purpleyoshiegg.bsky.social•90 days ago

All billionaires should be blocked anyway 😇

thedimpsler.bsky.social•90 days ago

Thank you best version of Windows

fairlylocalized.bsky.social•90 days ago

I don't mind reading his posts, it's fun to read dunks when he's wrong. I just don't want to see the same shit 500 times

I do use the Jesse Singal follower feed to identify people not worth replying to tho

grath.org•90 days ago

The discover tab can't show you Mark Cuban if you've blocked Mark Cuban. I have him blocked because I subscribed to the "anyone who follows Jesse Singal" blocklist.
