Feeds are always behind live; that's the nature of a service that scrapes content across the network and performs logic on it. I kept the search terms at 24 hours and only three keywords in an effort to make it as fast as possible.

Best I've got, sorry it isn't right for you!

pretty much, yes. A feed is like an algorithm, it'll pick up anyone who uses the words or phrase. Anyone can make one, skyfeed.app is popular and what i used.

The item you linked earlier is a feed I created; any post from the last 24 hours that uses the words #stlblues, #LetsGoBlues, or "St. Louis Blues" is picked up and repeated there. The trigger words can be changed at any time.

You're all good, it can be confusing! Starter packs are a list of accounts that make it easy for someone to mass-follow, or follow individually.

Feeds are a dynamic thing - someone sets up an algorithm that searches for and surfaces posts. Hashtags, words, etc. This is done using regex.

I created a feed at the beginning of the season; it's available here bsky.app/profile/stlb...

love the reflexes on the referee in the line of fire here, too
