Facebook has a blacklist on competitors, facebook wants to control the narrative, there is a reason your feed isnt by timeline, its artificially controlled.
Same thing happens on youtube, twitter, etc.
I've been using addons and rss feeds to go back to time/date ordered feeds, so I don't miss things I want to follow.
You can use RSS feeds to go around soft censorship, using apps like IFTTT, etc. Pockettube addon for youtube. etc.
The naivety in here is astonishing. "The AI just messed up". Facebook's entire existence is 1) identifying the smallest details in information 2) buying up small competitors before they are an issue.
Exactly, don't accept "blame the algorithm" excuses. Facebook/Google/Twitter has entire departments working on tricking and controlling people with psychology. If they can bend you to their narrative, it's great for Advertising, voting, etc.
The whole hacker/programmer community is/was freeing information, never trusting governments or mopolies. Culture sure has changed.
