#GitHub has changed how the default feed works, i. e. it does not work anymore & is utterly broken. Usually, I don't care about such changes, but in the case of #GitHub I follow a lot of valuable people through their accounts & already discovered a lot of new & interesting stuff, this way.

Now, this is not possible anymore, because the new feed basically says "fuck you" & you cannot do or see shit anymore. My feed is pretty much almost empty. All important information is gone.

It's also significant to point out, that when you try to filter the feed, it says it shows you stuff from "people", rather than "people you follow" which is extremely telling & seems like they want to harassingly force in #SocialMedia #YouAreTheProduct #Exploitation #Algorithm into #GitHub, as #Google already did with #YouTube, so many years ago.

We never wanted #YouTube to be another #SocialMedia #Shithole. The same accounts for #GitHub, even more so.

At least, as a poor man's temporary workaround, you can bookmark the legacy feed & manually visit it, for now, until they remove that one, as well.
