Can you expand on “be your own algorithm”? Essentially by using the search field??
Discussion
More so by putting in the work to curate your own feed with the people and content you want to see. Most clients are not doing this for you.
Another option is to save notes as a private or public bookmark, similar to X. Some clients allow for this.
Searching by a hash tag or key word does sometimes produce the desired result but it isn't often as exact as X.
So right now in Damus app I see “nothing to see here’s. Check back later” under Notes and Notes and Replies. (See image)
Is that because I have yet to follow anyone and once I do, that is the feed for their notes? (Which is probably what I’m thinking of)
Otherwise I just have to curate via search at this time? (Is that what y’all mean?) 
I have not personally used Damus, so not sure.
Can someone help Jason with this question?

nostr:npub1ur5ju4pd0xegu7wxal543ywn3aykxmjg2c9gucvtj5aaa43sm74qcxdx2w which app did you create your profile with?
If it was damus, I think you experienced trouble forming your profile.
