Enjoy!

It's a bit... bonkers. And the results are far from perfect. But it was a lot of fun to hack around with 😀
The content can be hit and miss. Very political. Very US-centric when the US starts to wake up.
I experimented with using OpenAI to categorise posts which was cool, but $$$$$$$
Sounds right. Well done! 👏
I'm not sure I'd use the 'top' view much as a random sampling of the current 'front page' had about a 75% hit rate for words I have muted, but I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for the personalised feed :)
I agree. It was a much better blend earlier before the US started waking up.
I experimented with gpt-4o categorisation of tweets which was fun but cost $$$$$.
Mind you, the ranking proc runs locally, so could try a local LLM.
'My feed' will be a good 2024 twist on faavorite :)
