.. to make a feed, we have to have our own server? What are the server requirements like, particularly with respect to disk space? I'd use my home server, but I don't think I can guarantee sufficient uptime for this sort of task.

There's one feed that REALLY seems to be missing, and since nobody has coded it, I was thinking about giving it a shot. Specifically, "NeverMiss" - a "Following"-type feed that prioritizes those you follow who post less often over those who post more often, so you don't miss your good friends' post in a sea of spammy posts from really active users (but you'll still get the latters' bangers... or all of their posts, if you scroll down far enough). Possibly further prioritizing users whose posts you like/share/reply to more as a percentage basis of their total, over those that you like/share/reply to less.

Yup - you'll need to run your own server

I run mine in a small $6/mo droplet & it's been keeping up just fine

Disk space is really up to you - it just depends on how much data you want to keep around. If you keep around all posts in the network for all of time then it will be a lot. If you keep around only relevant posts for a period of 3 days, then it won't be much

Love the feed idea!

Hello I'm so NOT A CODER (but i know what code is & can enter code if someone shows me what to enter.)
I clicked a link on BlueSky to Create a FEED: it brought me here.
I'm an Irish History author. Bluesky really needs an Irish History FEED.
Any thoughts? Suggestions?
HELP...? THANKS

I'm a bit late, but if you're not a coder, you might try skyfeed.app. It would be easier to use, also wouldn't need your own server.

@juncoflockleader that doesnt really answer anything.

@juncoflockleader that doesnt really answer anything.

network usage depends on the amount of posts people are creating. With the current momentum (both user growth and engagement growth) I don't think people can have definitive answers to that.

A best guess: you need about 8TB inbound traffic per month (with users by the end of this month) to process all the posts.
