Hi, glad you're spending more time on the social web!
We built Newsmast Channels to try and address this problem. They're not perfect, but you can find 62 topical, hand-curated feeds listed here: https://newsmast.community/about
Once you find one you like, you should be able to just follow the account from phanpy.social (we recommend in a list because they can be quite lively)!
Hope that helps, good luck 🙂
