Follow Packs
You may have been hearing a lot about Bluesky's popular 'Starter Packs' lately. BS users can create lists of accounts that others can follow with one-click.

It's a bit of an effort, but you can put your list of recommended accounts into a Google sheet with the list title in the first column and the account addresses in the second. Then use [Share >>> Publish to web >>> Entire Document/Comma-seperated values .csv] to get the file link for uploading.
If you do, use hashtag #FollowPack and a code like #MMFP to quickly reference your Follow Packs. Will try to regularly publish lists of Follow Packs.
