An algorithm is a formula for deciding what content you see. In my view, the algorithms on Facebook and Twitter are distorted and broken. They have bad algorithms.
On Mastodon, when I add a hashtag to my feed, or multiple hashtags, I am building my own algorithm. I am no longer just seeing content from people I follow. I am also getting new content on specific topics.
If I say, add the most "liked" content on boating to my feed, I am building a personal algorithm.
