#as much as I hate how Instagram is trying to push me content. it's interesting to play with the algorithm#it's so transparent as to what it bases its suggestions off of. kinda fun to try and fine tune it.#it feels like back when I'd mess with replika and try and foster a certain personality trait or response and train out others#if you can recognize the algorithm then you can stop getting fed mindlessly and instead use it to show you the content you want#that's the thing about algorithms. they're tools. weapons if used that way. but a tool for a purpose#so if they give you the tools to adjust the algorithm. then you can turn it to your own purposes#my biggest complaint is when they don't give you enough tools to manipulate your own algorithm#the moment you don't have the tools to adjust your own experience is the moment they start forcing content instead of letting you choose#I especially hate when it starts choosing to push content based on things I can't control#I don't care if my friend likes baby videos I don't want to see children in videos take that shit away#the amount of mommy baby videos I've had to repeatedly tell it to never show me again is awful.#I feel like I stumbled into the cult of motherhood or something#I do have the chance to hunt up more good black artists which is super cool. there's not that big of a pool here#so it's harder to find my preferences since yaknow.. limited sample size#tag talk
