 ) do you give less weight to likes on replies to self? i realize i often do “courtesy likes” but usually wouldn’t want them to be taken into account for weighing — or at least not to same extent as top level likes
i actually don’t get this attitude. even if there’s a winning wiring of smarts and duct tape, clearly it’ll take a few months for someone to package it up in a product. then competition will sort it out, then open source will copy it half-badly, then it will git good. why bother w/ middle steps?

to be fair to Discover, it’s gotten mostly decent for me too. right now Discover seems to mostly match my For You content, but it also mixes in some uspol content from people i don’t know that’s impossible to remove and some other accounts i’ve repeatedly “show less”d so For You is more granular
many don’t remember but a long time ago the Bluesky app *did* promote a third party feed during onboarding. maybe it’s time to revisit this? here’s what didn’t quite work out RE:

the thing looming on my mind is this… will they attempt to acquihire the creator of For You? and would that be a good thing? or is there a bette...
thread (see my responses below), would appreciate insights on segmented pagination. how did it work on twitter? how does it work on mastodon? which clients do it particularly well? i'm not asking about stuff like "cross-device sync", this is way out there for now; just want to figure out basics RE:

ok i prototyped this thing. even in algo feeds (like Discover), the previous stuff you've seen gets pushed down after "pull to refresh" instead of being gone completely and for chronological feeds there's now a "Load More" that fills in the gap between freshest stuff and last stuff you've seen RE:

ironically i think this is both the blessing of this place and the curse the fact that this is possible is bananas. it is not possible on any other social network to create your own algorithm (that beats the default one!) but also, how come we are stuck with a bad default one? RE:
