X, Nostr, Bluesky, Threads, even weblogs ... all timeline-based UIs (user interfaces).
They all share one common drawback: posts quickly disappear from the attention zone, old posts are hard to find, become practically inaccessible, expire too quickly, and good content gets lost too easily.
The next revolution of social media UIs would be: not timeline-based, but content-based. A completely different form of presentation that would eliminate all the drawbacks mentioned above. Truly revolutionary.
It would also render a manipulative algorithm obsolete. I have the concept/UI and author functions in mind for years. However, implementing it would require some capital.
so the reach would be heavily weighted to views? or shares?

Why should reach be regulated? To suggest other accounts? What I have in mind is not a classic timeline.
I am trying to understand what would the algo prioritize in order to keep the content "above the fold" so to speak if its not time based?
