Are you mostly in Global, or just who you follow?

All follows and a few hashtags. I don't need to drink from the firehose anymore.

What made you switch?

Two things: Zapathon is overwhelming and following interesting people at a more convenient pace vs. people who are just loud. I've unfollowed a few people and they made my feed much more bearable.

I see. Good approach. I'm mostly in global so I can find people to follow.

How do you find interesting people?

Good fortune, and following the people who follow those I follow, if they say anything that piques my interest.

Ok. I think I'm gunna try that. Getting tired of global myself

It might take more time to build up a feed that you like, especially since you don't really want to follow people, but, I think growing and pruning your feed is a bit more relaxed and leads to higher quality interactions. I've had so many good conversations in the last almost two weeks. It is a positive thing in my life, as long as I keep it that way.

That's true. I'll just have to be patient. I'm being very selective

I spent a lot of time in global in the beginning when I was building my feed. About a month.

Now I rarely venture there.

Did you build your feed from global? What type of stuff do the people you follow post?

Pretty broad list of topics actually.

Initially just hashtags. But as I've come across interesting notes I've added their users.

Ah, I see. I've been doing that too

I mostly use Satellite and it doesn't have "global" per say, just a "Featured". I think it's sort of like global, but uses some sort of algorithm to figure out what it should display? I don't know, it's just random shit. I mostly just look at stuff from those I follow.

Oh ok. I think I'm gunna switch to satellite right now. Seems like it filters better then amethyst?

Uhh kinda, the algorithm is not great but the dev said he's working on improving it. I think on mobile Amethist still works a bit better though. Try it, maybe you do like it better

ok

Never in global

Not enough GMs for you there?

Not enough frens

Why don't you make some then?

I'm trying to make frens in nests more nowadays

What do you guys talk about on there?
