npub1ttkqmpglj0t5h5r3t4xj5sdl7vezj03k7rp42h4jqkxlwsrgc0qqxfx6r5 (npub1ttk…x6r5) I'll never understand how people say an algorithm will help people read their feeds. Like, I curate my following list exceptionally well, mixed in with following hashtags, and I never run out of interesting stuff, all from things i curate without ads or algorithms. As for the argument that algorithms will help people that just wanna see the most popular whatever, boost, link, toot, whatever, like, that's not why I am here. You can use a different front end if you want that kind of feed but I like seeing a mixture of non-popular and most popular, without anything being sorted for me. Lastly, I consider it a pleasent suprise when one of my followers posts a hidden gem, like a link or something, that I would have completely missed if I was just looking at trending crud.
