Reply to comment by regalalgorithm in [D] Will there be a replacement for Machine Learning Twitter? by MrAcurite

There is a tonne of garbage posts on the local section, as well as out of order threads. While I hate how twitter is going, Mastadon is garbage imo

If you search it with hashtags you'll get a lot more relevant/topical posts (e.g. https://sigmoid.social/tags/nlproc). The local timeline may be full of ML people, but not everything ML people post is about ML. If you want a curated feed you'll have to create that yourself just like on any other SNS.

The way Mastodon does threads is kind of annoying yeah. But Twitter is way buggier than Mastodon. And if you think ML/AI Twitter didn't post "garbage" on Twitter, I have some news for you... It's an inclusive server, anyone interested in AI can join and we don't force anyone to only post about AI.
