    Opening the door for AI bullshit is not even the worst part of this idea.

    Folks, all of us here ARE the algorithm. Personal curation is a feature, not a bug.

    We make Mastodon awesome by following people and boosting what we find meaningful, significant or just cool. That's how it works.

    Let's keep making friends. Let's keep sharing. Let's keep Mastodon alive. Together. 💖

              @lisamelton We have an algorithm though

              1) Post something
              2) if @lisamelton boosts it…
              2a) Cringe as a legion of loonies feel they need to reply
              3) Goto 1

                I think I participated in that poll and I'm sure I didn't vote the way he liked.

                    @jrdepriest Yes! It was a poll. And I'm sure I didn't vote the way he wanted either. 😂

                    Also, I sure AF didn't boost it.

                      @lisamelton I mean, they can just make one. It’s fine. There are some apps that will make an algo feed from your local server and your follows.

                        @lisamelton That said, let things be true to themselves… Masto as you say, is about the people who make it work, not an algo.

                        Don’t try to make fetch happen, eh?

                                    I may be a sucky little cog in the Mechanical Turk algo of the Fediverse, but we're still miles ahead of what the F- ever Meta and Xter are swilling up.

                                    I'm rather proud of being a sucky little cog!

                                      Folks, all of us here ARE the algorithm. Personal curation is a feature, not a bug.

                                      We make Mastodon awesome by following people and boosting what we find meaningful, significant or just cool. That's how it works.

                                      Let's keep making friends. Let's keep sharing. Let's keep Mastodon alive. Together. 💖

                                      Yea, no thank you to that.

                                      It's amazing that people have had their minds so scrambled by social algorithms that they actually crave it.

                                      Gross.

                                        Recently I read a post by some jackhole techbro who wants a default automatic feed algorithm here just like Big Social™.

                                        Opening the door for AI bullshit is not even the worst part of this idea.

                                          Yes! And how did I see this post? A boost from a friend (yay!), not from an algorithm !
