Comment on Tear Down Walls, and Build Bridges
wise_pancake@lemmy.ca 8 months agoI like the little niche I fit into on mastodon, but the Explore tab is as grumpy as Twitter ever was.
It’s a lot like Twitter in that once you follow some good people and get your feed curated you shouldn’t look at anything else.

You’re absolutely right and I definitely shouldn’t be making broad statements like that. Another thing I’ve found is that if you can stomach the effort (or do this from the get go), it’s a good idea to put all your academic or professional accounts into a single list. It’s nice to check into a slightly smarter feed from time to time.

I’ve not tried out Mastodon yet, but am interested, and find this comment intriguing. Am I to understand that you can create custom feeds with a subset of the accounts you follow? Sounds like a good feature.

Yes but if you want to do just want anything more advanced than putting users in a list you’re out of luck.
