alt Hacker NewsThis is why I still browse 4chan and of course HN - because the feed is entirely time based with zero recommendations and no infinite content.
I've also added userscripts to remove shorts and recs from YouTube as well as uninstalling absolutely all social apps and only using web
Ironically 4chan /pol/ now has higher quality debates and more diverse opinions than Reddit, and a faster website that doesn't constantly push nag screens or hang rendering.
What I'm getting at is the internet is too common and we need to retreat to extremely niche and selective platforms with limited content that you can't just binge for 2 hours.
There is an algorithm to the HM feed and there are definitely recommendations. We are both posting in this thread because it has made it to the main page because people upvoted it. That’s the algorithm/recommendation system.
