I used a starter pack that focused on NLP/LLM academics and researchers in industry that tend to publish and talk about their work on Twitter, but have moved to BlueSky. It really does feel like a breath of fresh air. It's the content I want to casually browse when I'm on the subway or the ferry with a lot less rage baiting and without bots and spam.

Plus, it has that nice chronological feature in the default algorithm that really focuses on recent news, which was always my issue with Threads.

Do you have a link to said starter pack? Have been having trouble finding a good one of those specifically in this vein. <3

I don't have a link to one readily available, but you could probably just use my following list from my profile. I don't think I'm following much else at this point :)
