@Biokevin I wondered this too. The fediverse has the norms of old twitter in regards to real names and real biographical descriptions. I never partook in that, so it freaks me out a bit.

You could always do what I do and make a pseudonymous account.

@jdmsn People think they’re against “algorithms”, but they shouldn’t be. An algorithm is just a set of formal instructions, like a recipe. Chronological is still an algorithm!

The problem isn’t algorithms, it’s algorithms set by those who don’t have our best interests at heart.

I would like to see an option to implement custom algorithms, either universally available across the #fediverse, chosen by administrators at the local instance level, or individually.
