@lisamelton@mastodon.social The Trending tab does this for me -- I have my curated feed, and periodically I click on Trending, which leads me to NEW PEOPLE who I can follow. And also breaking news.
There IS an algorithm. You just get to CHOOSE whether to use it.

@nosrednayduj@hachyderm.io Yes. It's not the default. And, most importantly, the Trending tab is not tailored to what you've posted. You're anonymous as far as it's concerned.

@nosrednayduj@hachyderm.io On my instance, the trending tab is always empty, which maybe is just true. It's an instance for mathematicians, maybe just nothing ever trends. @lisamelton@mastodon.social
