Fair point. When I and most say "algos" they are referring to the current social farming algos that dominate the landscape. For music specifically, the Spotify algo.
Yes wot is an algo but its human generated and peer to peer.
Having different wot formulas installed on different relays or having clients filter using different wot weights will give people the power of choice.
You're absolutely right, the freeing of algos is what we are aiming for.
But its easier just to say no algos at this stage.
