Bluesky posts are finally open to the public::Bluesky remains an invite-only decentralized Twitter alternative, but now, you don’t need to be logged in to be able to see posts on the platform. The app has a new logo, too.

There is a discover people feature on my app at least.

I also kind of like it not to be bombarded with a useless algorithm just so i can doomscroll more. If you curate your feed with nice people and hashtags you get lots of traffic and if that gets too much you just make lists of topics within them.

I'm pretty sure at least when I started using Twitter that there was a kind of what are you interested in questionnaire. You'd fill that out and it'll give you a list of people you might be interested in you then select the ones you wanted.

Is it's a bit difficult to work out how you're supposed to start

Ah well afaik there is no such thing but i started looking for hashtags of my hobbies and found some nice profiles.

After you follow a few of them you can look into the recommended tab and will see quite a few similar people.

Someone here also told me about LisaMelton. She will throw many cool things into your timeline if you follow her.
