Blacksky Feeds and Hashtags

Within Bluesky you can view content based on feeds or by hashtag. It is a common mistake to assume that custom feeds in Bluesky are similar to a subreddit.

Custom feeds in Bluesky are aggregators of content, not forums. You cannot post exclusively to any one feed at this time. Learn more about Bluesky feeds: https://bsky.social/about/blog/7-27-2023-custom-feeds

So, clicking the #Blacksky hashtag is not the same as using the official Blacksky Feed. The feed is chronologically ordered and the content is curated through human moderation, automation, and some pre-filtering logic.

The community also proactively reports content to our Blacksky Moderation Service: https://bsky.app/profile/blacksky.app. Also see: https://docs.blackskyweb.xyz/docs/blacksky-info/how-to-add

What is the Blacksky Starter Pack?

A starter pack is a list of users and feeds that help new users find community quicker. The Blacksky Starter Pack is a curated list of the 50 most popular and active accounts from the Blacksky feeds. It also includes the Blacksky, Blacksky Trending, and the Blackademics feeds.
