    I think the easy discoverability on these platforms is part of what makes them so popular. Using TikTok or similar, a user typically wants to be shown new things, it maintains a sense of novelty that keeps users constantly engaged. Having to do this manually would be a huge negative.

      It’s what’s makes them addictive. Mindless doom scrolling an algorithm.

      Give users control to block and follow whatever without being pushed for “engagement”

      That’s for selling ads
