       @john I feel like there needs to be a citation there. I'm totally willing to believe that limited groups of people are put off of fedi because they can't see the 'hot' content first or some other algo - but every person on Twitter I have ever seen comment on algorithmic content resents bring forced to participate. Even making that kind of thing optional poisons the pool for how people interface with the fediverse.

       @john I certainly don't debate that the algorithms used by corporate social media keep people engaged with the platform. I simply am unsure that 'liking' it figures into the effect. That's why I asked for a citation. All I have right now is my own observations, which seem to conflict with yours on this issue. I was hoping that you might have some research source I could read and perhaps understand your view better.
