8 days agono, but the various algorithms that control and construct these “user customized feeds” is precisely the part of bluesky that is architecturely a bottleneck, and it isn’t a bug, the ceo of bluesky has gone on record that bluesky hasn’t ruled out using this intentional centralization point to force ads on the system
