Whats the state of algorithms on Mastodon?
Whats the state of #algorithms on #Mastodon? I understand that algorithms based on engagement are problematic, but scaling posts based on posting frequency could help me not have a feed where some people are drowned out by frequent posters...

There isn't anything official but there are third party apps that provide something similar. I am not really interested in a feature like this so I don't know how well it works but you can check out Mammoth.
Thanks! I like it, but it does not allow me to order my own following feed differently…
Check out Phanpy.social for the Catch-up algorithm, which allows you to fully customise and sort your feed.
For a real 'For You' algorithm that suggests posts by people you dont follow, check out SoraSNS on iOS. That has a fully customisable algorithm where you can completely customise the topics the algo recommends, as well as how likely each topic is to be recommend.
Good suggestions. Also, Sora is good because the ML is local
