Show HN: DailyTown – An alternative to the algorithmic feed
daily.townHi HN, there is something that's been bugging me for some time. I choose to follow specific people on social media because I want to see their posts but at the end of the day, an ever-changing algorithm decides what I see. I get the feeling of being pushed into things rather than pulling in the things I want.
The solution I came up with is a new social media format to stay up to date: a chronological, continuous queue for each person you follow where it continues from where you left off. This means that as a creator, you get a direct channel to your followers, and as a follower, you can stay in touch with specific people, ideas, and interests on your own terms without letting some algorithm get in the way.
If you're reading this, I think you'll enjoy following @hn500 that lets you follow all HN posts that reach 500 points, or any of the following accounts: @hn, @hn20, @hn50, @hn100, @hn150, @hn200, @hn250, and @hn300.
I'd love hear what you think!
