    Do we need algorithms that predict what we’re interested in though? At what point do we go “ah this is actually causing more trouble than it’s worth?”

    I’d be perfectly fine browsing content by category rather than having it fed to me based on some sort of black-box weighting system with no clear instructions for me to correct. I mean it works great here on Lemmy.

      Lemmy literally has an algorithm to rank posts

      Or do you sort your posts by new?

      What would you propose for YouTube?
