Yes. People don't realize algorithms are one of the main reasons decentralized sited haven't taken off. Most people don't want to spend time looking for their content, they just want to log in, laugh at funny memes and look at pretty art

    You are the algorithm. It's like going out decades ago. You didn't have an app to tell you which restaurant, bar or pub was good. You had to go and see it for yourself. Here is the same. You see people and you decide if it's good enough to follow them. The same with communities.
