Can we create and use social networking algorithms on the Fediverse that serve our own personal goals, such as more and deeper personal relationships, career advancement, and more participative citizenship?

@evan is this polling a policy/cultural angle or a technical one?

@evan Yes we can create silos!

@evan I'd say that we could use them as long as they're optional and, in some cases, user defined. Similar to how reddit allows for the creation of multireddits.

@evan [Yes, but…] I'm coming at it with a pipe-dream in which messages are arranged in 2D – imagine a projection of a celestial system, each message a celestial body, with messages "orbited" by messages that refer (i.e. reply) to them – and each person kind of charts their own "social course" though this system as they read / write.
Pretty sure such an arrangement would need an algorithm to even get started.
