The level of control Bluesky gives users with custom feeds is simply incredible. I could recreate the Mastodon newsfeed without any coding whatsoever.

All I had to do was create a feed on Skyfeed that

That's all I needed to do. Here is my tweaked version of this (no login necessary)..

JSON

    "displayName": "📰News (Trending)",
    "blocks": [
        {

Apart from the HackerNews sort, wouldn't this also be feasible with a list on Mastodon/Akkoma/Misskey of news accounts (unofficial and official)?

[-] airportline@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 month ago

Yes, but I could do this on my own without any coding, and use it directly within the app

[-] ALostInquirer@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

I'm confused on your use of "but" here; are you aware you can do likewise within Mastodon (and in some more interesting ways, Misskey & its forks) and third-party apps without another tool (Skyfeed) or any coding? Regardless, I agree that custom feeds have a lot of potential, albeit I've not found many that demo it yet.

I guess I'm having trouble communicating why this excites me so much. I'm impressed I created to create a custom feed that I personally found useful, despite not knowing how to code. I'll have to check out Misskey or Calckey later.

Oh! Hey, it is cool! Sorry to have rained on that, it was a fault in how I was reading it more than the way you wrote it, I think

[-] airportline@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 month ago

Haha apology accepted :)
