Where algos help us find what we want when we want it, i think they’re beneficial. New users, discoverability, finding particular content, etc. But I absolutely love the “in the moment” nature of the chronological, follows-only feed. It is more like real life interactions. In real life if i miss something with my friends/family, someone will fill me in on the most important part and if it’s worth learning more about it I’ll dig into it. Otherwise, whatever happens or is discussed when I’m not with them is nothing I even think about. On Nostr, if I’m offline for the day and something big goes down, I’ll probably hear about it from reposts, etc. If it’s important enough then i can dig into it. Otherwise, I don’t need to bother myself trying to keep up with everything everyone talked about while I was offline. I just pick up wherever things are when I log back on.
