I've followed just the right set of accounts that my feed is just pictures of space and cats doing weird stuff. I'll add more, but for now... it's perfect

🤣 me too except yesterday/today I'm seeing a bunch of "look at me" selfies, so I need to tweak something. I just want to see space/food/home aesthetic pictures mixed in with funny, scholarly or interesting posts.
Maybe, do use the separated feeds options to build curated lists instead of following accounts directly. It would help you to keep the main following feed as it is.
Having so much control over the feed is such a massively important aspect of the platform. Been loving curating different feeds for different things for myself
I don’t see anyone that I’ve seen or known before other than your team. But I like seeing only what I want here. I might need to follow more people now.
I'm still trying to readjust to the idea I can't hit refresh and have a ton of new posts immediately, but the vibe feels like a breath of fresh air compared to all the ragebait and bots
You can always keep doing that in the discover feed or by following other feeds. Of course it's nice to not get pushed to use an algo if you don't want to.
Love the lack engagement farming for Twitter revenue. Threads too even though it doesn’t have a user revenue model that I’m aware paying users…SO MANY blue check POSTS were like: ok, without saying Bohemian Rhapsody what is the best Queen song?
In all honesty, I think it will come to that eventually - give it a few yrs. This has to be paid for somehow eventually. I don't delude myself that it might not come to that. But meanwhile I will enjoy the platform while it lasts. It's a breath of fresh air from Twitter/X or whatever
You can also go find custom feeds that work differently - I have an hourly one that ranks posts by a combined score of likes, replies, reposts and quote posts. You can find it pinned to my profile. There are a bunch of other community made feeds as well that offer different views into the eco system
As I continued to scroll past your post, the next post was space, the next a cat, of course. My feed is space, cats, a random iguana, needlepoint crafts, and yes, I love it 😅
I agree. Over on the other place, I was trying to build followers because I thought I could change minds and educate people. I have since learned to be more selective in who Iet influence my day. Landscapes and cats add balance.
this was literally my feed when I created my account yesterday with no following/followers. I'm assuming the default algorithm is just cats, space and nature photography propaganda.
There's a few food feeds that are really good. If you go into the feed options, they're some of the most popular so they show up right at the top. If you post pics of your own food, use these emojis to get your posts automatically added to those feeds. 🍽️🍜🍲

Just an experiment to see what happens.

One of their examples in the docs is a feed only containing cat content 🤣.
Much love ❤️

It’ll improve in time hopefully as more people with that content come on
Full recitation
No more unnecessary clutter
I loved it!
Hadn't seen a dark Sky like this since I was a kid.
Captured Andromeda and bands of the Milky Way.
"My God! It's full of stars!"
