Any social platforms not focused on algorithms? 5 points · a_bytecycle · 17 hours ago Curious if there are any social media platforms that are less algorithmic than a facebook/instagram/x?
I find HN to be the best:- Good UI- No Algo, although ranking is a bit vague- Discussion can go very deep as the limit of characters is largeOther than traditional forums, I don't think anything else beats HN. X and Mastodan and such are just too short, too quick.
I think bluesky might fit what you're looking for, in the sense that either you can get chronological mode (the default feed), or use an recommendation algorithm of your own design.
It's called the #fediverse. Mastodon: https://joinmastodon.org Lemmy: https://join-lemmy.org Friendica: https://friendi.ca Pixelfed: https://pixelfed.org Peertube: https://joinpeertube.orgAnd many, many more.
