@darius There’s a parallel in the way we talk to newcomers about the timeline here: “There’s no algorithm!”
Well, no, that’s 100% false, there absolutely is an algorithm that determines what’s on your timeline, it’s just that it is very simple and isn’t designed to manipulate anyone.
But it’s clearer to average person to say “There’s no algorithm” because it gets across what we mean: you aren’t seeing a carefully specified mix of content designed to enrage and engage you.
