We finally have a platform that can compete with 
. This solves the #algorithm problem and everyone, especially Europeans, can jump on a platform that doesn't manipulate them. #Meta has already shown itself to be suspicious, to the point of censoring posts that refer to @pixelfed. With good reasons. In just a few days, #Pixelfed has already reached over 330,000 accounts.
But there's more from the #fediverse: an alternative to #TikTok is coming: it's called #loops.
@cubeofcheese @pixelfed "Much like Mastodon, Pixelfed implements chronological timelines without content manipulation algorithms."
@mudaste @pixelfed personally I don't think algorithms are entirely bad. They can help with content discovery.
I think it's bad to *only* provide algorithms with chronological timelines and I think it's bad to not give users control and insight into the algorithms they use.
I think the fediverse could actually benefit a lot from some open and configurable algorithms as an option.
@cubeofcheese @pixelfed I've never given it much thought, but right now I think it's more urgent to eliminate the problem of big tech algorithms and their manipulation by guaranteeing good alternatives. Anyway, in the fediverse we always have lists and hashtags that everyone can follow in an organized way, so we can follow our interests more closely. But I admit that if there were algorithms that we could control, it might be good to deliver more content of interest to each of us. I'm not sure.
