Very confusing.

I wanted to see if there were any infosec feeds (none appeared on the top 30 trending feeds list) so I clicked the hamburger menu at the top left, went to categories and went to security and privacy.

It was all random tools and plugins, so I went back to "Feed Directory" which appears to only be a top 30 trending list. So it's seemingly misleadingly named.

Edit: there's another hamburger menu, about 75% down the viewport that has some other stuff in it, idk.

Pretty confusing UX

Thank you so much for your feedback!

If you're browsing on a mobile device, please use the menu button at the bottom left to expand the category navigation.

The category option at the top left currently serves as a navigation tool for Bluesky.

We’re actively working to improve this experience.

I know it's a minority opinion with this crowd, but sports has such a large presence on X and I don't know why it's lagging moving to BlueSky. I like the categories on this site but "sports" doesn't even make the cut while "eSports" does.

There was a thread on Reddit recently about how NFL corporate has demanded teams delete their BSky accounts, because of a contractual relationship with X.

In Britain at least I find that Bluesky is mainly populated by the kind of people who really want you to know that they don't like football

Will be interesting to see how that fairs with /r/nfl banning links to X.
