Mastodon’s use of a chronological feed is what kills it.
Funny, that’s exactly the reason I like Mastodon’s feed over traditional social media. No bullshit being pushed, just the people I’m following and the posts they make.
You’re saying this… On Lemmy. You do know we have three different “trending” settings here, right?
I honestly much prefer the idea of a chronological feed too, but disagree that’s what kills a platform. Tumblr has both the chronological and the trending for you/for all, and it was also ignored.
I’m definitely in the “all choices” camp when it comes to sorting methods, and I’m DEFINITELY in the “keep your fucking algorithms” camp (beyond the extremely basic like hot/trending being based on activity and upvotes).

But twitter people love bullshit!
No algorithm designed to keep you addicted or run experiments on you.
You’re fired

You can’t quit I’m leaving!
You can’t leave you’re a frog!

Which are optional so what’s your point?
Don’t forget that some people have more than one account
