Thanks for the advice, but I will not be rewriting my story to aopease your grievance.

The algorithm doesn't care to push misandrists articles to me and I don't go looking for them. It does seem to like pushing misogynist ones at me ad nauseum infinitum. Hence, my aggravation.

That's also why I have tailor my algorithm as much as I can with block and mute, wiping read history, trying not to get pigeon-holed as a reader, staying off the "For you" page. All the things. I don't want to be bombarded with all that bullshit either.

Never let an algorithm choose your wardrobe or your reading habits or your mate. That way, lies madness.

I'm a bit unclear as to why you thought it would or should be any different for you, because you're a man??? Maybe? I mean, this is something we all have to do because we're the product being manipulated around in order to make other people money by where we spend the most amount of time. That's how it works, yeah? We all know we have to outsmart the algorithms or play in the dandbox they assign to us. Did you miss that memo or something?

Nevertheless, best of luck on your next platform, which will work with exactly the same dynamics.
