Sorting the feed is literally what any algorithm is, choosing what content to show when. I think what you’re against is personalised algorithms, but even for algorithms that just prioritise engagement or retention, it could be argued that hexbear’s algorithm does exactly that too. Albeit, not in as sophisticated a manner as say instagrams.
