danielpetho··on Show HN: Filter out engagement bait and politics on your X/Twitter feed
sounds interesting! tho that would be rather summarizing content i assume?

ah maybe i'm living under the rock, but how you could do such thing for bluesky?

my feed is pretty boring there:d

danielpetho··on Show HN: Filter out engagement bait and politics on your X/Twitter feed
i disagree, or at least i don't consider myself to either of these groups.

i think there is still a large enough group which is there to share work / projects

danielpetho··on Show HN: Filter out engagement bait and politics on your X/Twitter feed
yes that's the main idea.

i mean even llms wouldn't be necessary (this is just a possible direction), but just give me more control on my own feed

danielpetho··on Show HN: Filter out engagement bait and politics on your X/Twitter feed
100% agree unfortunately, haha

the default system prompt is quite weak, and could be much more specific / better.

also, even as a "human" can't decide sometimes what is a bait...

danielpetho··on Show HN: Filter out engagement bait and politics on your X/Twitter feed
someone asked the exact same question hah.

i'd say because: the network effect is still strong. it feels like a huge chunk of (recent/real-time) tech/design discussion happens there. but could be just me. i'm still warming up on bluesky/threads.

yeah, something local (and free) would be much better. i'm not even sure how expensive could this be if it would run all the time...

re bot removal: thanks for it, will give a it a try!

i like the for you page since i can discover fresh/new work from others. otherwise how would i get to the point of following someone? (excluding when you find the person's account on an external site)

but i feel you, the following tab is definitely a healthier/more controllable space

danielpetho··on Show HN: Filter out engagement bait and politics on your X/Twitter feed
super cool! i like yours better tbh as it looks much more granular in terms of categorizing

re publishing—just do it! this project is also a rough mess, only a quick experiment, so i doubt anybody will care if it fails sometimes / not perfect, code is a mess etc.

yes groq is really amazing.

there is another player i've found when making this -> https://inference.cerebras.ai/

never tried their api tho

danielpetho··on Show HN: Filter out engagement bait & politics on your X/Twitter feed.
neat!

yes it's the same idea, tho for this one you need your own API key, which can be a bummer for some.

danielpetho··on Show HN: Filter out engagement bait and politics on your X/Twitter feed
yeah some kind of real-time tweaking would be also nice. sometimes i'm in the mood for topics i'm usually not following, but i would go back to my "default" space after a while.

the problem imo is that there is absolutely zero control on most platforms.

on x there is a button called "i'm not interested in this tweet" but obviously it doesn't do anything meaningful

oh wow, this looks promising. thx!
danielpetho··on Show HN: Filter out engagement bait and politics on your X/Twitter feed
i agree. but sometimes my lizard brain just can't resist the temptation and i will stop to read the tweet/start a video. and the algorithm already could think that i'm interested in this type of content
danielpetho··on Show HN: Filter out engagement bait and politics on your X/Twitter feed
you might be able to craft a system prompt eg.: filter out anything that mentions or even slightly related to elon musk, his companies, etc.

obviously it's never going to be perfect tho

but your best bet is still blocking/muting people then

thank you!:)
