Edgar Rice Burroughs: Tarzan of the Apes (EBook, 2021, Standard Ebooks) 3 stars

The Standard Ebooks project (www.standardebooks.org) has inspired me to delve into the classics—both of literature in general, and of genre/pulp fiction specifically, so that my knowledge of the field and creative output (especially as a worldbuilder and Dungeon Master/aspiring RPG writer) might grow.

How do you use these "curated feeds"???

Simply follow them.

The posts will come in just like any other accounts you follow. Now they boost a lot of posts which will flood your Home feed. The solution is to use Lists.

Create a list for this topic, add the account, and go to settings (slider bar icon at top right) and toggle "Hide these posts from home". Your Home feed will no longer receive boosted posts from this account, but you will be able to view them by clicking on the list.
