I haven’t found any of the trending algorithms very useful. They generally amplify notes that I’ve already seen through people reposting them multiple times and things like GM notes by “influencers” that may be “trending” because they get a lot of engagement but aren’t new or interesting content. While I don’t want a fully algorithmic feed I do want better mechanisms for discovering unique and interesting content, particularly from smaller accounts.
