Hmm, I wonder if Facebook could do that automatically? Like, write an algorithm to detect content farms and automatically hide them from your newsfeed.
I wonder why they’ve never done that…
- corpdronejuly 5y agoThey have that kind of algorithm, but most people want, or at least behave as though they want, outrage bait, and cute content farm affirmations. The moment you take a moment to be proactive and have ownership over your experience the algorithm happily shows you less crap and more people.

- j16sdiz 5y agoJust like the spam filter, “algorithm” won’t be 100% effective. Unlike spam, the content farm spreads organically.
