Not against algorithms
Against a universal, unknown, unmodificable, inexorable algorithm
And we’ll have plenty of algorithms in nostr; they’ll just be voluntary, local, and transparent
Discussion
That’s the nice part - we can choose not to use any algos (hopefully) and that will always be the client I’ll go with.
Not all algorithms will be local and transparent but all will be voluntary. You will always be able to switch them and sometimes at the cost of using a different client.
Eso hombre 😎
.Newbie to nostr here. Please explain what you mean by algo. The relay controlling the storage or an automated bot sending out info as a separate nostr id.
by algo I mean algorithm
in nostr you decide how the information you see is sorted
whereas all social networks decide how the information is presented to you to maximize one thing and one thing only:
capturing your attention
it just so happens that the things that capture human attention the most tend to be negative things, stuff that will make you feel outraged, stuff that will trigger you in some way.
that has been molding our minds for the past 15+ years.
We are breaking away from that model.
