I opened your page. 5 posts by Simon Willison and 8 by other authors. A comment by Simon Willison underneath this comment as well (now the top comment on the thread).

Simon's spam game is CRAZY. There's a million blogs out there but over half of the posts on your reader are him. Why bother? You can't get away from him here or on lobsters even if you want to -- why further flood your subscriptions with his slop?

I don't understand how he has such a grip on you people. The Andrew Tate of AI bros.

I see, but yes and no. He is maybe the most active among them, but for that precise reason (I have it from the beginning, not after I stared reading his blog :)) I show only last 5 posts of each blog, to not pollute that list. This way everyone has a chance to stay longer on that list.
