I'm gonna try to consciously relax my who-to-subscribe-to rules, which are currently kinda calibrated to who-do-i-follow-on-tumblr. that is much more selective than I want for dreamwidth since:

a) tumblr discovery is much easier. If I see your content once I will probably see it many times and get many opportunities to rethink 'should I follow them?'. this is not the case on dreamwidth and I should err more on adding anyone vaguely interesting and then pruning afterwards if I have to.

b) my intuitions developed for times when my tumblr dash was close to saturation (i.e. how much content i ideally want per day) and my dreamwidth reading page clearly isn't.

I made an explicit effort at first to follow everyone I vaguely knew from tumblr even if I hadn't been following them, but I did not keep it up and I probably should

One thing that makes discovery easier is that you're not just limited to your own reading page. If you think I might have good taste in who to follow, you can check out flaksesomlys.dreamwidth.org/read, and if you want to see everything posted by rationalistdiaspora members you can go to rationalistdiaspora.dreamwidth.org/read.

(mentioning in case you haven't noticed, like I hadn't yesterday)

I did not know the latter option, thank you!
