@thegiddystitcher Oh! The Explore feed is the Mastodon algorithm (that supposedly doesn't exist). It's the "best-of / trending" posts federated with your server, as ranked by number of recent boosts & favorites. Nice idea in theory, but easy to game & depends on the preferences of others & bots, not yourself.
On my server Explore is lots of USpol & activism, which I find draining. I wish it was better at showing only topics I'm interested in. I also want a unicorn! Will settle for pony.
