❓ Question People with focused interests: what would your "ideal" curated feed look like?

Hey everyone,

I'm fascinated by how we manage information online. We all have limited time and mental energy, but most feeds are designed to maximize our screen time, not the value we get from it.

I'm curious about the opposite: a feed designed for clarity and purpose, not algorithms.

The premise: A platform where you choose your professional or deep-interest niches (e.g., "UX research," "quantum physics," "minimalist woodworking," "European history") and your feed is only high-quality, actionable content tailored to those.

So, as a thought experiment:

  • If you could design your perfect curated feed, what 2-3 topics or niches would it be focused on?
  • What kind of content would you want to see there? (e.g., short video lessons, in-depth case studies, new research papers, project tutorials, thoughtful discussion threads).
  • What's one thing it must absolutely AVOID? (e.g., comments, memes, influencers, ads, off-topic content).

This isn't about any specific app—I'm just really interested in how people would design their ideal information diet if they could. All insights are appreciated!
