well I just just found an implementation of an early version in the bsky-social/atproto repo I cloned in Dec 2023 😅 pretty sure the algo got updated since then, can no longer find it in the current repo

SkyFeed does not collect any personal data, only anonymized request counts grouped by their limit parameter: https://stats.skyfeed.me
But as it turns out, different Bluesky clients use a wide variety of limits, so this minimal data is sufficient to identify some trends in third-party app usage:

We just reached 40 000 custom feeds on Bluesky! 🎉 If you're interested in self-hosting a SkyFeed-compatible feed engine (it's open-source), send me a message and we'll get it set up! It would be great to diversify the ecosystem :) These are the 16 most-used feed generators currently on the network:

The SkyFeed infrastructure is a bit overloaded, I am currently working on setting up a new query engine server and redirecting some of the traffic there. So everything should be back to normal in about 1 to 2 hours, thanks for your patience!

It works! 🎉 Secure E2EE group (and private) chats powered by the MLS (Messaging Layer Security) protocol and routed over the decentralized S5 network. The app is written in Flutter+Rust, so should run on any operating system (mobile and desktop). But Rust-WASM (Web) seems to still have issues :(

I switched to MiMalloc for the SkyFeed Query Engine (Rust) and looks like all memory leaks are gone! Left is before and right is after switching

Just added RegEx match highlighting to the SkyFeed Builder preview, that should make it easier to understand how your RegEx works and debug any issues you might have. This feature will be available in SkyFeed v0.9.0, launching later today!

8 different custom feeds for every single hashtag on Bluesky, coming soon to the SkyFeed app! Powered by the SkyFeed Builder query engine. Unfortunately, publishing all of these (8000+) custom feeds would be pretty spammy, so they only exist virtually and client apps need to add explicit support.
