    I like that Lemmy and Masto don’t have those fucking algorithms. It’s a relief.

      What is your opinion on Bluesky? Their default feed is chronological, but they do have algorithms. They’re actually moving towards custom algorithms, so you can build your own or use someone else’s, delete, pin, reorder them. It’s like different feeds. I like that implementation personally.

        I couldn’t say, they’re closed to new users. I’ve been on the wait list for a long time, but no joy.

        I’m skeptical that it ultimately won’t just turn into Twitter 2.0

          Actually, the waitlist takes way too much time. I just went on Twitter and found a couple of people with invites. I don’t have one yet, but would you want one when I do?

            Sure, I’ll give it a go, thank you for thinking of me. The whole bullshit with Twitter and now Reddit has me feeling pretty burned on corporate-owned social media, so I’m likely to stick with federated things like Masto, Lemmy, etc., but I’ll give it a go. I am curious about it. I wonder why they’re leaning so hard on the waitlist thing? They’re losing precious adoption time, as people are right now wanting to move away from Twitter. Or rather, they have been wanting that for months, so there may already be a lot of lost opportunity re: user attention or interest.
