The source for the feed generator, mod tools and jetstream client is now online (hacky, but functional).

In other news, the feeds are shutting down now. @andri.dk needs a break.

Thanks to all of those who have helped test the technical feeds.

Sad news folks. I am archiving this project and shutting down hosting.

- The classifier I've been experimenting with has been promising, but disappointing in finding new tech content
- Hosting is quickly becoming expensive and time consuming without only ~10 likes.

The admin dashboard for my custom feeds is coming along nicely.

It can search (query, min-score, max-score) and you can add a manual tag indicating if matches #tech in this case. This is then used to train the algorithms for better future results.

Good news everyone!

The classifiers now have deeper context from Bluesky posts (threads, quotes, images, etc).

But, the bad news is that we're starting on a fresh database. So, it might be a few days before the classifier is good again.

I wrote a blog-post about my experience writing a Bluesky feed generator service during the holidays.

Feel free to share or send me a DM if you have questions or comments.

Development thread 🧵

Technical Scrolls is a project by @andri.dk to create a allow-list feed of technical content with the immediate goal of providing:

# Tech (following)
A personalized feed from your followers that filters out anything that isn't tech related. So, like "Following", except filtered.
