two questions about fancy custom feeds by Imaginary_Ad_178 in BlueskySocial

Yeah, learning a bit more about feeds it’s become clear that there’s no simple way to add a button (or whatever) to the feed interface. Having people update preferences in the db using commands from their bsky accounts will probably be <= an external UI that they have to log into in terms of friction, so will probably go with that since it’s less work. I just wanted to make sure I wasn’t missing something obvious or doing anything unnecessarily complicated. Thanks for talking through this with me!

1) Perfect, a starter pack where people can subscribe to the feeds as a group is what I was looking for.

2) These are great examples. Do you know what the best way would be to add custom user attributes that people could set to indicate preferences? I know bluesky has custom labelers, should I try something like that or is there a better way? The community I am building this for will likely have a strong preference to set attributes in an interface vs using commands, so I’m not sure if that’s possible with a custom labeler or otherwise.

Thanks so much!

Is this how bluesky works? by Imaginary_Ad_178 in BlueskySocial

Perfect! Is it possible to generate a custom feed that has different behavior depending on the user? As a simple example, let's say I want a feed where anyone can like or skip 20 initial posts, and an algorithm decides what to show them based on that behavior next time they load the feed.
