You can choose which algorithm you buy from.

you can’t face the advent of basically free content production without an algorithm.

The evil thing of Facebook and the rest of the NSA complex is not the use of an algorithm

The evil thing is two-fold:

* non-voluntary, opaque algorithms

* universally-applied homogeneous algorithms

💯 this. I had the same thought almost immediately after I joined #nostr

Fuck yes. Heard too many times the silly "nostr is great because there are no algos" - an algo is bad if it's obscure and tuned to manipulate you but otherwise a great tool

But what if you want no algorithm? Like in the real world.

If I already know a group of people I want to follow based on shared interests why should I want an algorithm? They, real people, people I like and trust, will recommend me posts and people to follow. What algorithm can be better than that?

yeah... that's an algorithm...
