the best luck I have had trying to broaden the audience of who I see here is to go to the recent posts and interact with people i've enver seen before. it opens up the feed a bit.
Oh, didnt you know ? - this is the joy we are supoosed to love from having an algorithm applied that customises our feed to supposedly suit us each individually.
I dont know who or howmany asked for this over the years, but now we are stuck with it
@LunarOrbit in truth, i think it also has something to do with admin trying to reduce agression as well.
But i feel their algorithm was too limitingly constructed and has overshot their expectations. That, and the fact that its so intertwined with other changes, (forums), and the Google search engine - that to try and tweak itight cause catastrophic useabilty .
But thats all ive gleaned - im no techy. This is just what ive picked up scraps of from conversations and what admin put out.
It won't change, it's all regulated through the algorithms, even the new posts are based on algorithms and not just showing every new post added in chronological order. Lol
@LunarOrbit It's not that it hasn't been suggested to them. I've noticed lately they tell us we have it under the 'new' posts, tho it doesn't show it all. They're not interested in giving us such option, no matter how much their users requests it. It's a dead cause.
Also - as far as i understand, (and thaf might not be much), but if you want to see more, you have to: - join more groups - make more friends - make more comments
(Which is an irony because its forcing you to go beyond your own discerment of self, JUST to see more. YET we are denied our discernment to select what we like from the full feed.
@OogieBoogie Thank you. I do need to join more groups. Im not one to go looking for friends. And I somewhat comment on posts. Most time I just peruse (the same old shit) lately
@LunarOrbit i see it as working against the idea of being 'similar'. If you have hundreds of groups just to see more posts - how does anyone get a 'sense' of you when they visit your profile? Too many groups just smudges us out to being generic.
And we dont NEED to be similar to bond with people. In fact its been proven we HATE to see ourselves in others.
I think its also stupid to make us 'make more friends' when/if we don't want to.
