Just a little bit frustrating to read people saying "the Fediverse should have starter packs" when I've spent the last four+ years hand-curating recommended accounts to follow on @FediFollows and fedi.directory

I'm not the only person doing this kind of initiative, the Trunk directory (communitywiki.org/trunk) was the first, and the Fediverse.info directory by @dansup (fediverse.info/explore/people) is an automated way for people to add themselves to suggested lists.

We already have these things on the Fedi, people just need to ask around and discover them, and let their friends know about them.

p.s. The very first sentence on fedi.directory has been on there for years before bluesky and reads:

"This is a human-curated small selection of interesting accounts to help you get started on Mastodon and the Fediverse. "

How is that not a starter pack?

@FediThing If I get it correctly, starter packs are public lists?

@FediThing I mean, sure, this feature is too hidden and not discussed enough. But you export a list as .csv, follow it, and… that's it?
