Maybe Bluesky needs to ask a few questions the first time a new user looks at the discover feed to prime it for them.
Personally I'd prefer if there was no default algorithmic feed but I know that just doesn't work. People will create an account, see nothing in their feed, and leave because the site seems dead or because they can't even fathom how to get started finding people to follow or custom feeds to add.
- bdangubic 2y agothey do - they ask… the “problem” is that it is too broad… I picked “science” and there were myriad of post with pictures of various galaxies… pretty but after you see 27 of them… with the new accounts it is also asking to like 10 posts and follow 7 accounts so that it can try to figure shit out. it can be trained for sure but when I first joined to try it out it was just politics - mostly left-leaning praising Dr Fauci (very confusing) and stuff like that. I don’t use social media - no X, Facebook, Insta, TikTok… all were tried but eventually discarded … bluesky will suffer the same faith :)
- iteria 2y agoDiscover is based off your follows and likes after a certain threshold. Before that it's based on everyone's likes and follows. For a new user it's not the best, but as you use the site it gets better.
