Awesome!

Loops works with these new Collections, too.

It seems as if you can only add at most 25 people (accounts) to a Mastodon Collection.

Having Mastodon Collections is awesome!

But, a 25 account limit makes certain types of list tough.

It seems as if mastodon.social now has Collections (i.e., starter follow packs).

I am happy to see them.

Farcaster seems to have Starter-Follow-Packs now.

"Starter-Pack" & "Follow-Pack".

2 separate terms for the same thing.

They give you a collection of people and other users to follow.

They help new users find people to follow — so they don't have an empty home-feed. But they also help existing users find more people to follow.

I am going to (combine the 2 labels and) start calling them Starter-Follow-Packs.

At least one implementation of starter-packs / follow-packs for the Fediverse is will NOT allow you to add someone to starter-pack / follow-pack if that person has set their account to NOT be "discoverable".

(Being "discoverable" or not shows up in the activity (application/activity+json) file for the user.)

As I mentioned before — I think the Fediverse version of Follow-Packs / Starter-Packs should be some type of ActivityPub / ActivityStreams object.

It could look a lot like the "following" and "followers" URLs look.

There are now multiple efforts to create a Fediverse version of Follow-Packs / Starter-Packs.

A starter-pack gives you a collection of people and other users to follow

They help new users find people to follow — so they don't have an empty home-feed. But they also help existing users find more people to follow.

Did some tidying up of the links for chemistry related starter packs, arranged loosely by subject area, and added who maintains the list so you know who to speak with if you'd like to be added! tinyurl.com/ChemSkyStart... #ChemSky #Chemistry #Chemists #StarterPacks 🧪
