It’s ironic — Pixelfed thrives without algorithms, yet Loops users demand a great one.
That’s why Loops became its own project.
We’ll always keep Pixelfed’s reverse-chronological magic intact.
But Loops is different: we’re building an ethical algorithm that connects people to ideas, creators to communities, and sparks a movement that belongs to all of us.
@dansup i don't remember you making a poll to see how many people really support an algorithmic loops feed.
@hiphopheaven it was always the plan, we will still have a Following feed, and a Local feed which is chronological.
@dansup what about the ability to find videos by keywords and display the videos in a chronological feed?
@dansup
I think that many users in general like to have algorithms providing content they didn't know existed. However, I think it is important is that the algorithm is completely under the users control.
@dansup Would it be possible to have *some* kind of input for the algorithm? Like a clue for it to use. "Give me funny" or "Nature" for example?
Thanks for the great work. 👍
