in particular which are good. But there are endless posts with cats, foxes, birds, scenery, dogs, animals etc. So far
it is pretty much a waste of time and boring. I was never on Twitter I don't know maybe it was the same.

And the Twitter convention of using hashtag phrases is also used on Bluesky.

But like Twitter, it is simply a more or less time ordered stream of short messages, and unlike Twitter not otherwise ordered by the platform using some algorithm designed to capture and hold your attention.

Following interesting posters is how you cultivate your ‘feed’ of messages. Search for ‘starter packs’, they are special messages that contain lists of people to follow based on some common property. You can follow everyone on the list with a single click.

You can add feeds you like to your list so that they show up on the side, then click on those feeds to see posts on those topics.
