   @carnage4life @mekkaokereke the custom algorithmic feeds really help too. there’s a feed i love called “quiet posters” that only shows posts from people you follow who *don’t* post a lot. pretty clever way to keep those people from getting drowned out.

     @sabik @jakelazaroff @carnage4life @mekkaokereke Yup.
     Mastodon's "No algorithm" feed, is a de facto "timezone and posting frequency selection" algorithm…

     @jakelazaroff @carnage4life @mekkaokereke *This*. So much *this*.
     When people crow proudly about Mastodon's complete absence of algorithmic feed, all I hear is "I don't mind only reading from the loudest people in my feed"

     There are also timezone effects; some people (presumably) mostly post when it's 3am where I am, so I hardly ever see them in my feed

     It also means that it's hard to notice if someone hasn't posted in a while
