do we need an algo ?
Discussion
I mean, each time i've seen algos coming in play where the main feature is to show you the "top" , the "best" , the "most performing" , it ends up really bad ( twitter , facebook, tiktok) .
I would ask to think and rethink hard about such an "algo" in #nostr ?
Fortunately, at least, I can code and promote a client 100% oriented to users choice.
Viva #nostr 👌🤗
Everything is an algorithm. “All posts and replies from npubs I follow, sorted reverse chronologically” is an algorithm. Just a pretty basic one.
I can’t wait to see all the crazy varied algorithms people come up with!
Can be a time saver. But most important is being able to turn on or off.
and choosing which one you run
and that not everyone chooses the same one
Any algo is like a tax code, where complexity favours the few.
The most important thing is that it works for you. Not for the guy who sells your eyeballs.
Does it save time or help you spend more time?
This question hasn't been answered by humanity yet, i don't know if it's achievable or not - hard opinions one or way or another are unconvincing so far.
I say no! (If I miss it, I miss it.)
An algo is like autocorrect for content. A better method is “on demand”.
Exactly.
