Like, how do you find Nostr meetups in your area, that take place within the next 4 months and are likely to include someone from the last meetup you attended, without an algorithmic feed? Even if you use a search bar, the results you get are a highly-algorithmic feed, ideally ranked by relevance, that can be requested at any time, by refreshing the viewer and rerunning the filter. Why should the only use case for Nostr be, "Sitting in the couch, scrolling past Bitcoin memes and housepet galleries, for 30 minutes?"

I should describe it as intelligent algorithm recommendation. Sorting by time is a reflection of real life, which does not require intelligent algorithms.

**natural algorithm** (time) > **artificial algorithm** (attention bait power / fiat ads revenue potential)

Computers are literally clocks.
