25 minutes left, @samuel.bsky.team

When I realize that in order to make SkyGraph map streamable* I'll need to dig out my math PhD work, spend 5 years in a basement finishing it and then publish a paper explaining why it was impossible. *so that clusters update incrementally in live without needing full dataset recalculation

Well, this is probably it. But there's hope. All the code is here: github.com/witchmonster... github.com/witchmonster... github.com/witchmonster... Feel free to reach out to @witch.monster if you need any advice on setting it up.

This actually might be the end of SkyGraph for foreseeable future. I'll need to check how the big indexer (the one I use for updating the dataset) is doing. Then it's another question whether it would be even possible to construct a dataset this large on current equipment (6 year old PC).

The current SkyFeed infrastructure can't handle the extra load (more than 4x) caused by all the new users. I'm currently setting up two new powerful servers, which should have enough resources to get all feeds back online later today. Thanks for your patience and sorry for the downtime 😊

By the way, these 6 feeds still work since they're powered by @skyfeed.app infrastructure.

All SkyFeed feeds should now be back online, thanks for your patience! This has been the first and only downtime in the last 4 months.

SkyGraph feed indexer is not doing well. Few hours behind firehose. Same for @bot.skygraph.art If you don't see fresh posts in skygraph feeds - that is why. Hopefully it will catch up once the surge is over.

Reminder, you can customize your "My Galaxy+" and "My Nebula+" experience using @bot.skygraph.art 1) turn off/on replies: !skygraphbot repliesoff mygalaxy+ !skygraphbot replieson mynebula+ 2) Remove/add follows mix in? !skygraphbot followsoff mynebula+ !skygraphbot followson mygalaxy+

So apparently there was a bug that was rendering the feed empty for the users that tried to use showless. It ended up with the corrupted entry in the db. The bug is now fixed, but the excluded communities for affected users are reset. Sorry for this. 🥺

hi folks 👋🥹 i’m still actively migrating some things but wanted to give a few usage pointers 👆👈👇👉 you can set up to 🖐️ five 5️⃣ flags but make sure to only send ☝️ one 1️⃣ at a time ⏱️ you can DM @labeler.renahlee.com by going to your messages and hitting the ➕ hope this is helpful 🤲 love, kickflip 🛹🩵

To remove irrelevant content from your feed based on a single post/profile use: !skygraphbot showless mygalaxy+::[link to post or profile] !skygraphbot showless mynebula+::[link to post or profile] Example: !skygraphbot showless mygalaxy+::https://bsky.app/profile/pfrazee.com/post/3kxdn7ka2n22y

Both feeds are down. Unfortunately, this will be a longer downtime than usual as I'll have to re-create the feeds from scratch. Once they're back, they'll take some time to fill up and catch up to your likes and start showing you relevant information again.

July SkyGraph dataset update is here! skygraph.art Data included up to July 4th.

It's one of those days again. Getting feeds back up in a few minutes.

SKYGRAPH! a primer! @skygraph.art is a community visualization tool created by @witch.monster based on Atlas, by Jaz. each node (dot) is a community, which has a "leader" (i call them mastheads) the most socially active account by weighted mutual interactions. node size correlated to comm size.

Server is experiencing some issues. Feeds will be up in a minute.

Skygrants are nice, but it would be nice to have some kind of automated service, that would allow community projects like this to support the infra costs. SkyGraph feed server currently costs 30 bucks a month. With growth it might eat up to 50-70. Easy for a large enough group of users to support.

Bluesky lets developers create complex custom feeds. But how does that actually work in practice? I talked to the developer behind @skygraph.art to learn more about how to make a good algorithmic feed. www.nightwater.email/bluesky-skyg...

June 2024 SkyGraph dataset update is here. Live now at skygraph.art 3d party PDSs are included on the map now. Feeds will be udated to the new dataset gradually next week.

Feeds seem to be down due to host provider issues.

PSA: how to make sure low quality "news"/"memes" accounts don't show up in your community and as a result - in SkyGraph feeds: - Don't reply, like or follow them - Tell your moots to do the same - Report spam - Use labelers such as @profile-labels.bossett.social to filter out repetitive content

SkyGraph feeds will be unavailable for a few hours due to server maintenance.

@ap.brid.gy users, welcome to SkyGraph! You will show up on skygraph.art map and your posts will become available in both feeds by the end of the week, once update to SkyGraph v5 (June 4th) is complete.

I'm thinking about turning off replies in "My Galaxy+" by default. And keeping them on in "My Nebula+". What you think? You will still be able to customize it using @bot.skygraph.art commands: !skygraphbot replieson mygalaxy+ !skygraphbot repliesoff mynebula+

Not found in most recent SkyGraph dataset? Not a problem! I'm rolling out the new label propagation system based on your likes. Community that gets the most mutual* likes from you becomes your community until the next big dataset update! *harmonic mean of likes in and likes out

It's a very old and deprecated draft, but I thought I'd show it to you because it's pretty 😊 🌈🦊🦔🌳🐺🐝

Strong recommend this feed:

By the way, these feeds are really what I need. With them, I feel more "in the moment" in this social network ___ До речі, ці стрічки дійсно те, що мені необхідно. З ними я почуваюся більше "в моменті" у цій соцмережі

Both feeds had a problem today not returning any posts. The problem is fixed, but it will take time for the feeds to refill again.

Bluesky doesn’t just have one algorithm - we have 1000s! Discover is our flagship algorithmic feed, but developers can build feed generators that use any algorithm they can dream of! We love algorithms, but we don’t want to lock you in one - hence why you get to choose!

Discover feedback thread! If you have something to say, let me know here. Likely a lot of it will be “yep, we know” because we all dogfood it a lot, but also theres a lot more of you out there.

Presenting you 2 new experimental feeds. Both are similar and will slowly adjust their content based on your likes: - "My Galaxy+" should provide wider reach - "My Nebula+" should be more cozy and more responsive to your likes Feedback is very much appreciated. bsky.app/profile/did:...

Customize your "My Galaxy+" experience! Add more content and turn off replies: 1) !skygraphbot status mygalaxy+ 2) !skygraphbot setoption mygalaxy+::home_communities=10 👆default is 5 3) !skygraphbot repliesoff mygalaxy+ Remove follows mix in? !skygraphbot followsoff mygalaxy+

New skygraph.art dataset update coming next week. - data up to June 1st - accounts from 3d party PDSs will be added to the dataset - more features for @bot.skygraph.art, that will allow you to customize your experience with My Galaxy+ and My Nebula+ feeds - update the feeds Happy Pride Month! 🌈

!skygraphbot whereami

👀

2099 unique users have discovered and used SkyGraph feeds in under 3 days. With 699 DAU and 50-150 HAU! Wow! Thanks everyone. Anyone who had issues with any of the feeds (errors, too few posts) - all of the known issues should be fixed now.

Deploying fixes now. Downtime is not expected 🤞 (but possible).

If you've been getting super low post outputs or Internal Server Errors with the feeds: I got you. Fixes coming soon 🙏

Interesting discussion about My Galaxy+ showing irrelevant results to some users. It probably makes more sense to show such wide communities to new users only - those who don't have enough interactions yet. And for cases like this - only throw in additional 2-3 nebulas instead of a Supercluster.

Feeds are back up, thank you for your patience!

Rolling out a few minor fixes for the feeds. Expect brief maintenance downtime for "My Galaxy+" and "My Nebula+". ETA: 10 min.

Thanks everyone for an amazing feedback! Kudos to @jaz.bsky.social for the inspiration to play with community detection and @memgraph.com and @skygaze.io for demonstrating application of such data in feeds. Huge thanks @pfrazee.com for sharing! 📊📈 For collaboration contact @witch.monster Feeds 👇

My Nebula+ seems to be what I was looking for after the For You feed died.

For those who previously used our "My Nebula" or "My Galaxy" feeds (without the plus) - explanation about the differences with the new "My Nebula+" and "My Galaxy+": - consistent experiense for all users - content adapts based on your likes - different sorting - more complicated under the hood

If you see @skygraph.art liking your posts while not following you - it's me TRAINING the feeds to see how they react to likes. 😇🏋️ Also, @skygraph.art version of the feed is the one logged out users see.

Data for the new SkyGraph update go Brrr... 📈 📊
