I’ve never used Twitter or Facebook or that kind of social network.
So I can’t say if the user experience is worse or better.
However there are a couple of functions I can’t find that puzzle me.
For instance I can’t get a list of the people I subscribe to, to quickly view their content. But there’s a list for the hashtags?
I also can’t see what the meaning is for the interests i checked off when opening the account. These keywords do not appear anywhere I can see in my account.
This means that if my wife see something interesting, she can’t say from what subscription it came to her feed, to make a similar subskription.
Also I couldn’t find my wife when searching for her, but she could find me?
The FAQ doesn’t answer these questions that I can see.
It seems a bit rough IMO, but I guess it’s nice enough. And the fact that there is zero noise from either bots or advertising is absolutely stellar.

One of the left side (on a desktop browser) menu headings is ‘Lists’. Click that, create a new one called whatever you like. You can then add people to that list.
Not quite the same thing but close - and more discerning maybe. There’s also a ‘following’ header which is literally exactly what you’re after.
The key concept you want to look into is feeds. They’re as, if not more important than hashtags. There’s a feed called Following which is all posts from people you subscribe to.
Seems to me hashtag and feed is the same thing on bluesky. There is a hashtag symbol together with the feeds option on the left side menu.
I have no problem watching my subscribed channels collectively, what I can’t do is single them out individually.
