How would you adjust it? The whole concept of ‘social networks’ is just posting your life for everyone to view and expecting some validation/confirmation. I don’t think algorithm can change that. There’s plenty of other platforms/tools already where you can… you know, do other things like read news, post comments anonymously, play games and stuff. People who post selfies on instagram specifically want to be judged by other people. I don’t think there’s a healthy way to do it.
Easiest way to make it less toxic, is to make it just chronological - that’s just the most basic example.
