    Or just stop using custom made algorithms tailored to you in particular. In this front I think lemmy succeeds by not implementing an algorithm and letting you decide on the content you want to see

      That’s the same reason why reddit used to be good. It was honest. You always understood how the posts were filtered and sorted, and there was no trickery in it.

      Technically lemmy has sorting algorithms you can choose from. I don’t know if they are hard coded or you could implement your own. Same with mastodon, is there a way to sort other than “new” on mastodon?
