In my humble opinion, a twitter-like platform needs a big central algorithm that can associate posts with certain topics and interests to be able to serve up an interesting feed, because most people are just kind of shouting into the void and that endless storm of posts has to be filtered and organized somehow, otherwise everything you see is just benign uninteresting garbage. Lemmy/Kbin have the advantage that by nature all posts are neatly sorted into topic-based communities, and it's a lot easier to subscribe to the stuff you find interesting, and block the stuff you don't like.
Well that's easy, just add tags to your toot and everything is dandy. No need for an algorithm.
Brilliant! You've made one post findable!
Why do you have to be so sarcastic man they weren't even talking to you
