Buying a book and actually reading it are two very different hobbies.

A book token for me so I get the added gift of browsing a bookshop, agonising over my choices, eagerly taking them home and then not reading them until two years later 😅

Good tips here!
I’ve been making use of Lists for this reason as well. I can’t follow a zillion people and still have a functional timeline, but I’m adding interesting accounts to different Lists so I can click over to read their posts when I want to.
Lists = just ppl on it
Feeds = algorithm based on ppl on it

Starter packs are great but worth considering making hyper-specific packs into Feeds! That way people can, for example, follow regular updates specifically from everyone that works at your publication. I’m less likely to follow a gazillion starter pack people then I am to simply follow one feed!
