Sorry to hear that

I'm just surprised the spicy kind made it to that part of the world!

Oh that is a good tip!

I don't like lists because it constrains people to only post on one topic. I hope they come up with some other mechanism for feeds that doesn't have this herding behavior.

That's a billion dollar question 🤣

This might only make sense under different axioms from physicalism such as yogachara mind only schools or Kastrup's analytic idealism where the brain is an organ of perception rather than a generator for consciousness.

Haha as a recsys guy I of course want to play with my own ranking algorithms for my own feed

The quick start shows how to listen to the firehose. If you can listen you can sort and rank atproto.com/guides/appli...

I am new to this platform too but it is built upon open protocols so in principle there might be something in the docs on how to run your own server and feed ranking. I don't know but the at protocol site is here atproto.com

I wonder if this is part of the AT protocol. Seems like a fun project to hack on, I might do it one day
