I'm now thinking Twitter developed algos to keep it from being too boring.
30 people reposting some gigantic account posting "GM" is not adding information to my feed.
Discussion
poop stinks 😁
I agree for the most part.
I'm also considering about developing an algorithm for my future nostr projects.
But I also see some interesting posts I never saw before because of reposts. And sometimes the original post is months old.
Yeah, I like when people dig up someone or something obscure. Like a treasure hunt.
I would love repost-concentration, like some of the clients do with notifications. Rather than the post showing up 30 times, show me the first 5 times and then start clustering into one entry and adding +1, or something.
That would already help avoid the way a gazillion reposts of the same post drown out everything else in my feed. It's like my feed has a stutter, sometimes.
Yes, dears, I already saw that he said "GM and don't forget to stack sats". Thank you for your enthusiasm. 🙄
Good point, I will try to repost more when I find things I find interesting.
I try to repost, but I repost so much that people mute me. LOL
It's like... Me and what army?
I think the developers of Nostr think that Twitter's algorithm is evil. They don't want to be evil, so they don't develop any algorithms.
Well, lucky for them, that means they're the people everyone is following because they have been here the longest.
Happy coincidence.
