Well, had my content curated on Reddit and despised the recommendation stuff on the official app (that I never used lul). But now that I’m on a new platform, I want to have recommendations lol. The Random stuff on the sidebar’s pretty neat, could’ve sworn Reddit has similar like 10 years ago.
I know it feels weird but as you said, some of us spent a lot of time curating that experience so it provided things that were of interest. Redoing it all seems daunting.
I run into the same issue with Spotify, I listen to music so in frequently that it never properly learns my tastes and it’s recommendations are terrible because of it, so I never use it.
With Lemmy, I am trying to engage more so hopefully I can find other groups a like to replace some of the places I miss from Reddit.
