No algorithm in the fediverse! (Very basic “algorithms” at most)
The Algorithm™ on lemmy is posters reposting things they've seen elsewhere that was provided by that platform's algorithm.
All the things I repost from other sources are scraped using ethical practices, organically hand picked, and packaged for archival and public discussion on the Fediverse.
The only traces of an algorithm that might linger, is that I sort from date posted. And then I try to verify the place and date of the recording happened. I post the source for transparency.
If you don't like that, I'm open to suggestion, or just block me.
