…dumb question but what’s a starter pack? will there be booster packs?
On Bluesky a user can group a bunch of other users together under some topic and then offer the pack to others to help them get started with who to follow. You can auto-follow everyone in the pack. But afaik you cant choose whether to be included in a pack.
So… user-curated default subs. Probably less relevant on lemmy because communities aren’t as fine-grained as following individual users but I don’t think we even have instance-wide default subs, just the all feed.
A “people who joined your communities also joined these communities” mechanic would also be a good idea I think. Run dimensionality reduction over the data once a fortnight and just give people the results, that is, tell them which bubble they’re in.
What Mastodon and any fediware need is a form to choose your instance :
- random general instance btw a mixed of a few middle size instance rotation every now and the
- fully random instance
- a instance rofly matching our liking through a short questionary. Five minutes max to make an account using a unified interface.
