Gregory's ServerAgain, Bluesky’s approach seems to hinge on “let users define how the algorithm works”.
Inevitability, I feel this is going to turn into a war of different factions trying to define what the algorithm does.

 @atomicpoet That may well be the outcome, but the underlying concept of user applied, label-based filtering and prioritizing is not a terrible concept on its face. The devil will surely be in the details. But to their credit, they are envisioning some constraints on the firehose as it scales. There is no such discussion of such things here (that I've heard), and that's concerning. Especially since implementing any approach could be politically daunting.   @atomicpoet  |
@atomicpoet Why not just work off likes and boosts and weigh them aporopriately. Or evaluate your lists for keywords. There's a gazillion possibilites with having that much user intervention.
