Seeing stuff about reddit being posted to 10 different technology boards, plus reddit-themed ones, then reposted further just makes this whole idea a mess. Reposts have to be consolidated into a single comment thread.

    The goal should be to allow users to choose their own algorithm, including third party algorithms you can install yourself or something.

      Sure, but the algorithms themselves will have to be provided by the instance, so I guess different instance might make different choices, for example due to privacy concerns etc.

        You could engineer it so users could provide their own algorithm.

        It would be a HARD engineering problem, but not impossible, IMO.
