Slowing things down has the virtue of being a much easier means of social engineering than figuring out how to empower users to control the flow of content that comes to them. I only have some sketchy ideas of how exactly it would work. Definitely the starting point is to let users have a simple chronological option.

How does slowing things down make social engineering easier? That’s a security term, and I’m not quite sure how it’s relevant to the OP.

  Social engineering isn't just a security term. The use in security is inherited from a broader and pre-existing concept. It's about setting up conditions that influence people to behave in a desired way.
