I believe BlueSky, based on the way it's open source AT protocol works, would make it much harder to implement an AI/algorithmicly driven feed in the same way this happens on other platforms.
And if it did happen, you could simply swap this Feed out for a different one.
- yen223 2y agoThere's nothing preventing Bluesky, or someone else, from building an "algorithmic" feed on top of the AT protocol. That's what the Discover feed is, for all intents and purposes. What is harder is Bluesky forcing users into their flavour of an algorithmic feed, the same way e.g. X doesn't let you remove the Trending section, or how Reddit always shows you comments ordered by "Best". Bluesky users currently can choose the feed they want to use.
- aussieguy1234 2y agoYou have a point, but custom Feeds are one the main features of BlueSky. I have several Feeds for different interests, Twitter doesn't let you have these types of custom Feeds. I think it's unlikely they'll ever remove it. I can always ignore the Discover feed.
