i hear you, but rn when people don't like what they have, they already go out of their way to "rebuild" their algorithm by liking or viewing different types of content on purpose. (i think a lot feel like they can control it to an extent) and on the technical side, it seems that it would be so much harder to have algorithms on nostr anywhere close to how efficient the big tech ones are. so i do find it interesting that we're looking for better algorithms and more choice, but in the long run is it actually worth it or are we wasting our time? imo the outbox model is the future of nostr, and algorithms do not like that model. nostr does not thrive with algorithms.

I'm not looking for "better" or "more efficient" algorithms than big tech, however you define those terms. I want to control them, for myself. It seems like your argument is "I don't think it's possible so don't even make the attempt. It works for me as is so it should work for everyone." I reject that premise. Have a great day and enjoy Nostr as you wish. Other people may want to use it differently.
