Turn a topic or hashtag into a feed you can pin

You want an ongoing view of everything about one subject — a hashtag, a game, a language, a niche — not a one-off search you have to re-type. Bluesky can search and it has hashtags, but neither gives you a persistent, pinnable feed. Here's the gap and the fix.

Why search and hashtags aren't enough

Tapping a hashtag or running a search shows results right now, but there's no "follow this hashtag" that lands a live feed in your Feeds tab. You have to go back and search again every time. For a topic you care about daily, that's friction.

Make it a real feed instead

feedbuilder turns one or more keywords (or hashtags) into a published Bluesky feed generator that stays put. Pin it once and it keeps pulling matching public posts from Bluesky's real-time stream — no re-searching. Because it's plain keyword matching over the live firehose, there's no LLM and nothing to run out of: however busy the topic gets, the feed keeps updating for free.

Tips for a good topic feed

Use a few specific terms rather than one broad word, to cut noise (e.g. a game's name plus its studio).
Include common variants and the hashtag form of the term.
You can share the feed link — anyone can pin the same topic feed, since a keyword feed shows the same posts to everyone.
