Better than standard sorting? (Most liked, most zapped; liked by friends, etc…)?

Possibly, it’s all possibilities for now. I am curious to see what algos could be capable of doing if they are coded by people with good intentions.

Decentralizing algos development would surely provide some interesting outcomes I believe.

I think it would only centralize over time and go back to exactly what some seek to escape

Do you have the same fears for #nostr as a whole?

Not as much, no, because we’ll have so many clients to choose from.

So why wouldn’t that be the case with algos? We could have many algos to pick from, or even build our own combining predefined blocks from algos service providers.

Well, there’s no way to stop anyone from adding algos to clients. I’m just making a case for why you should probably think about it first…

Fair point. Let’s hope to have clients and relays who will leave that choice to the user. If that is possible.

I am not a coder, so when I browse the NIPs I might get confused. I thought algos would be something a user could control.

Sort by zaps , sort by reactions within, sort by comments and new. And also set time period (default 24hours)

I think these four filters/sort should suffice discovery

I feel that is a waste of all the tags and metadata that will be available. But, obviously if I cannot chose/control the algo, I do not want it.

Even in its simplest form, I could design an algo that gives parameters for all the things you have listed and combine zaps, retweet, likes, comments and more in one feed you configure to your linking.
