#NoAlgorithm

@misc Welcome to the Fediverse! #noalgorithm

@jesuismonsieurb les mystères des réseaux sociaux. Je me suis inscrit pour parler jardin et je like une photo de momie 😂 . Jamais l'algo de twitter ne m'aurait proposé ça.
#masotodon #noalgorithm

@raikas @kissane @rolle Ah yes, I had the jitters crawl my brain for months after leaving Twitter.

But it’s now ex-twitter, literally.

I like it here. Most for the calm of mind actually. Not feeling like an algorithm is watching your every move is liberating.

You stop performing when you get here. And that is great.

#noalgorithm

Ich frage mich, wann Politik, Medien und Institutionen begreifen, dass ihre Tweets auf Twitter nur von einem kleinen Kreis gesehen werden können. Sinnvoller wäre es, die kurzen Tweets endlich in Tröts umzuwandeln - die kann jeder sehen. Auch ohne Account.

I was thinking lately, do you need an algorithm to show Mastodon posts (either, personal, local or federated) chronologically?

I was wondering because we always say that Mastodon does not use any algorithms, which may not be completely correct.

Funny how no one in this convo used a single hashtag, which is the way to find that which you seek.

Fun facts: I first posted on Twitter in 2008. I had 3000 max last year. My most popular/viral tweet was last year during the trucker #convoy in Ottawa. 226 RTs. Since joining Mastodon in November I have 1700 followers and I’ve already managed to produce posts with more than 500 Boosts. I am #selfhosted with 3 people on my server. But tell me again how engagement on #Mastodon and the #Fediverse is not good enough for the ‘important people’.

@The_Nerdy_Neko #Mastodon has #NoAlgorithm so go ahead and post as many links as you like!

Unlike #Twitter you don't have to worry about the overlords stopping you from moving their users out of your site. Nobody cares about trapping you in here anyways, Mastodon's here to give you a platform to make friends, stay in touch, share cool stuff, yada yada!

@zimowski
First, you should put all of the #hashtags you're following in your #profile, and follow the people who regularly #toot those hashtags.
Next, follow the people whose toots are frequently boosted by the people you're following (hint: If you see a boosted toot, someone you're following boosted it).
Then, whenever you see a toot that you enjoy, be sure to #favorite, #boost, and #comment on it.
And finally, keep doing all of the above on an infinite loop until your network is large enough to keep you #informed, #connected, #entertained, etc.

Remember, there's #NoAlgorithm here to show you stuff that "it thinks" you might like. You have to #TakeControl of your own destiny here. Leveraging your #CommonInterests with others is a great way to immerse yourself in any new culture, even if you don't actually know anyone there yet. If you're #friendly, #curious, and #engage enthusiastically with people here, you'll find your network growing quickly before you know it.

#twitter seems to be on the way out. Another place to consider (besides #Mastodon) is #substack - specifically #substacknotes - not a twitter competitor, but it's good for #infovore needs (and no algorithm):

Veldig synd, men fikk bekreftet av Tidal at de ikke lenger har en norsk musikkredaksjon som anbefaller norsk og internasjonal musikk. Dette gjorde Tidal milevis bedre enn konkurrentene, så jeg synes synd på de som gikk glipp av dette.

Hvor går man for å få gode musikkanbefalinger nå da? Finnes det andre strømmetjenester med redaksjoner? #noalgorithm

Intriguing news— #Automattic has acquired the #ActivityPub plugin, creating an easy 2-way conversation between #WordPress #blogs (or websites) and the #Fediverse.

Have read explainer-y posts saying “Fediverse, not Mastodon” to help nudge people’s mental models larger than Wooly Mammoth social media site(s).

I let my blog languish as the Two Big Silos (FB, The Bird) spawned so many connections. This may be a way back.

#NoAlgorithm + re-connections: promising.

Don’t forget to #Hashtag your posts.

Consider your desired audience and hashtags they might follow. That will give you exposure to people with similar interests and build your #NoAlgorithm network.

I am #NewHere from the #TwitterMigration so I have to remind myself to #alttext images and #Hashtag posts.

#mastodontips #Fediverse

@JensHannemann apparently I follow about 350 people (including you) and that’s more content than I can read even if I were to do nothing else… but whenever I come back, there’s great content here.
I love the #Mastodon #noAlgorithm content on my #timeline

I think the Mastodon community CAN fight off social parasites. But it won't be because of an algorithm it will be because of the lack of it. #NoAlgorithm

If people migrate to #Mastodon and can’t figure out how to login, then maybe we don’t need those people here. It’s not rocket science. It’s just an extra step for your special interest. 🤷🏻‍♀️ #NoAlgorithm #NoBillionaireOwners

What is not to love?

@KimCrayton1 I LOVE this. Thank you for sharing.

I should think about it a bit more, but for me what immediately came to mind for 2023 was #NoAlgorithm.

People are better than an algorithm every time. Technology should enable us to be better socializers. I look forward to trying to work with building platforms around data using perhaps little to no AI and only very simple transparent algorithms. Relying on people rather than algorithms wherever possible.
