Meta Just Proved People Hate Chronological Feeds
(www.wired.com)
A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Isn't that already how it works, sans the transparency part?
You press "like" on something you like, and the algorithm shows you more that are related to that thing you just liked. Indirectly, you're curating your feed/algorithm. Or maybe you can look at this from another angle, maybe the "like" button isn't just for the things you like, but also the things that you don't particularity like, but would like to see more.
Then there's other people around you, your Facebook friends, their likes also affect your feed, as you can see the algorithm suggests things that "people that are interested in things you're interested in, are also interested in".
