@sarajw@front-end.social to be fair, I saw this on trending posts. But yes, agreed.

@sarajw@front-end.social Oh, I hear a little different story: „You're boosting too much, I have to unfollow.“ [A little later] „I found a button to mute boosts. Can I follow again?“ 😅

@sarajw@front-end.social yes. That's a great feature. There is just one problem. There are some people I would like to follow, because they write sometimes interesting things, but they post 20 things every day. I don't have time to check so much posts of multiple people. So I would like to have a filter, that just adds the most important posts of them.

@sarajw@front-end.social what bothers me as a former Twitter algorithm user is how favorites are basically pointless; at best they serve as a voluntary "read receipt". I want a machine to learn from what I'm doing, highlight things that appeal to me personally. I need tools to manage all the novelty in the world!

@sarajw@front-end.social It's anarchy or democracy. Using the term algorithm is them winning your brain. Don't fall for it.

@sarajw@front-end.social I'm happy to be part of your "smart algorithm. 🙂

@sarajw@front-end.social The other algorithm is the "Explore" feed, which I use a lot. It would be cool if there was a version of that for each hashtag. And also for user lists (to see what people in those list are boosting)

@sarajw@front-end.social That’s the social networking experience I remember from way back during what I call the ‘Golden Age of Social Networking’. The four short years of 2009 to 2013, from the latter years of elementary school to the first half of high school, were the years in which the utility of social networking sites were at their peak. It’s all been downhill from there.
