A means for the user to directly influence and control their own algorithm would be a game changing feature. Perhaps this could be implemented within clients and verified at some level (to ensure no manipulation by third parties).
Given current platforms have an overarching business interest in maximising their revenue, it's difficult to see them offering users algorithmic control over content curation. As we've seen over the last few years, centralised platforms are easily pressured into censoring content. User controlled algorithms (with verification features) would be directly at odds with their current models.
