The #fediverse needs to come to terms with one thing: on content platforms, chronological ordering is probably good for your subscription feeds, but for the #discovery feed the average user actually WANTS an #algorithm.
Instead of kicking your feet in anger, release your anxiety and think for one moment.
Wouldn't it be better to formalize #discovery algorithms as #opensource? To create programmable interfaces server side so that the user can define their algorithm client side?
I really want this particular discussion to become more coherent across the different people bringing it up. Is there a good hashtag for it, or should we invent one? #fedisearch?
Unfortunately I don't know if anyone else is talking about this, mostly because one side is against #DiscoveryAlgorithms since they feel typical sorting functions should be enough, and the other side thinks that letting clients handle it would mean too much complexity and bandwidth usage.
There are also those who hate any form of algorithms spreading content at all, and those who want their algorithm to be secret sauce.
