Explaining to the Kids What a Chronological Feed Is

When was the last time you saw a chronological feed on a social media platform? Maybe never.

I just received an invite to a new social media network that is old in its ways. The next post you see isn’t determined by an algorithm. It’s chronological, either for all content on the site or just for people you follow.

I can’t remember when I last saw a chronological feed, other than WordPress. It will work for small numbers, but what if the number of users spikes dramatically? Even for the number of people you follow? I guess we will all find out.

But I have to be careful. The site has a “no AI” rule. I may slip up.
