@jon I agree, because the algorithms are optimized for user engagement and not for the user. Posts that generate a lot of attention (emotional, fake news, clickbait, …) will dominate the algorithmic feed so FB, Twitter, Instagram, … can show more ads. Also by making the sorting very confusing people keep doom scrolling because they don’t know when they’re ‘done’, with a simple timeline people stop scrolling when they reach a post they’ve already seen.
