Interesting!
I’ve also seen comments from people who like that not having an algorithm (that mostly rewards drama) makes Mastodon more peaceful than, e.g., Facebook and Twitter.
What do these people miss most about algorithms?
– Finding the most relevant posts in their (busy) timeline.
– Discovering interesting posts elsewhere (while having an empty timeline)?
Well-designed algorithms could indeed be helpful.
