Especially on Lemmy, the only thing it’s really doing is bringing some discoverability but the discoverability isn’t all that bad on Lemmy you have to look around for like 2 minutes to find the communities, okay, well you have to understand that there are like communities on multiple instances, figure out how to switch from local to all, then look around for 2 minutes
After hanging out on Blue sky for a bit I’m pretty sure Mastodon could use a little algorithmic help. The communities on Mastodon are so loosely formed they can be a little hard to find, you end up looking for people with the same taste and follow their followers. It works but nothing ever gets surface to you that you didn’t actually actively look for and it seems to be kind of a mess in a Twitter scenario.
Fuck the algorithm. Idk why people like that shit.
