There’s already an algorithm. The difference between an algorithm on Lemmy and Reddit is that the algorithm on Lemmy is public.
Where does the algorithm show up? Does it modify the all feed? Or the local?
I didn't know about this at all. Thanks!
It modifies the feed according to your sorting option, which uses different algorithms.
