Personally, I think there's room in the Fediverse for an app with a "strong algorithm" provided it's completely open ofc.
My biggest issue with algorithms isn't the fact they exist, but that they're proprietary black boxes so no one truly knows how it's being manipulated
We should be able to select different fully open source algorithms from a drop down menu, and load custom ones from fediversealgorithmmenuwithdescriptions dot org, including "no algorithm".
I assume that's like a billion hours of work, but, goals.
"No algorithm" would load nothing at all. Everything is an "algorithm," including listing all posts in chronological order.
Wanting "no algorithm" is like wanting food with "no chemicals" in it and not realizing that carbs, fats, proteins, etc. are "chemicals."
Only eating noble gases.
Noble gases are chemicals too, damn it!
The only thing that isn't "chemicals" is literally just vacuum.
Only a dehydrogen monoxide addict will say shit like that!
I would say freedom, fallacies, and magic are not chemicals.
Even a vacuum has random particles coming in and out of existence, it's not even empty space
They have at least little tendency to participate in chemical reactions.
