The problem with following Lemmy communities/Kbin magazines is that it seems like every single comment on a thread shows up as a new post in Mastodon aaaaaaand please don't.
Give me the thread header and show responses underneath it, don't automatically boost every single reply. Good god.
Well I guess that kind of gets tricky in the scene where people are so opposed to algorithms.
Mastodon uses the algorithm of the fire hose just throwing all of the content at the user, well, here's a bunch of content, and it gets thrown at the user.
It's giving the people what they ask for, for better or worse.
@volkris Nothing to do with algorithms at all, everything to do with how kbin presents comments to users as activitypub objects.
Which is to say... the algorithm :)
How kbin presents comments is its algorithm for presenting comments.
