Everyone here knows sort of any kind is an algorithm. And everyone knows when we speak of social media algorithms, we refer to the selective boosting or removal of content.
It is not helpful or necessary to point any of this out.
- Kye 2y agoIf the person I actually replied to found it unhelpful they can of course say something and we can have a nice, civil conversation about it where we both learn something. There really isn't a polite way to say this, but it needs to be said: no one asked you. Or j_maffe. Neither of you accomplished anything by butting into a sub-sub-thread that didn't involve you and didn't need your antagonism and ill-tempered presumptions about my intent.
- j_maffe 2y agoj_maffe here. Sorry if you found this insulting in any way. I wasn't referencing you in particular as several other comments pointed to the very obvious fact that chronological sorting is an algorithm so I was referring to this overarching theme. However, the entire point of a forum is for users to "butt-in" on threads. If you didn't find the reply contributing anything meaningful, you're very much free to not reply. And if you don't like random people replying to your comments, you really shouldn't be using forums. cheers.
