@fediversereport Yes. These curation desks are a great way for new users to get a good home timeline quickly while also enabling them to discover a whole new set of people to follow based on their interests.

This is a big reason why these curation desks are staffed with expert curators rather than being powered by bots. The idea is to engage directly with communities in the Fediverse to help people discover each other.

This is a great innovation on how to do this - and way to bring human-curated content discovery to the #Fediverse. #Bravo.

@tchambers @fediversereport Thanks Tim! Human curation is even more important now than when we started Flipboard.

fortunately, well-done/ sophisticated #curation can not be replaced by bots or #AI, as it includes human curiosity & intuition…

It reminds me of the difference between sharing hand-crafted music playlists, versus AI created playlists made by machines using some algo of which we know not.

And is so much more in the spirit of the Fediverse.
