Comment on What are your complaints about Lemmy?
matcha_addict@lemy.lol 2 months agoFeed Algorithms aren’t inherently wrong imo. The problem with typical feed algorithms is two things:
- no user choice or control: the user cannot opt out of the algorithm, and cannot customize the algorithm
- lack of transparency: there’s little to no visibility how exactly the algorithm operates.

Stream’s discovery queue is a good counterexample: optional, doesn’t manipulate you or waste your time, and each item indicates why it’s been recommended (though in my case it all seems to be because they’re popular).
