My Algorithm
My Algorithm is where you see — and change — what shapes your Discover feed. Instead of a black box, you get three simple lists you control directly, plus a read-only look at what the feed has picked up from your behavior.
Opening My Algorithm
- Open Settings.
- Under Feed Preferences, tap My Algorithm.
You’ll land on a screen with three editable sections and one read-only section below them.
The three lists you control
- See more like this — topics you love. Posts about these get boosted toward the top of your Discover feed.
- See less like this — topics you’d rather see less of. They’re not gone, just shown less often.
- Hidden topics — topics you never want to see. Posts tagged with these are excluded from your feed entirely.
Each section works the same way:
- Tap Add on the section you want to change.
- Search the topic list that appears, or type your own custom topic.
- Tap a suggested topic (or your custom one) to add it — it shows up immediately as a chip in that section.
- To remove a topic later, tap the × on its chip.
Changes save automatically and start shaping your feed right away — there’s no separate save button.
What it picked up
Below the three lists is a “What it picked up” section. These are topics the feed has learned you like on its own, from what you watch and tap while you scroll — you don’t add anything here yourself, and there’s nothing to edit. It only appears once the feed has picked up enough of a pattern to show something.
How this fits together
My Algorithm is the explicit layer: topics you’ve told Nuts about directly. It works alongside two other feed controls:
- Not Interested — a quick, per-post way to downrank something on the spot, without opening My Algorithm.
- Mute topics from this post — available in a post’s ⋯ menu, lets you send specific topics from one post straight into your “See less like this” list.
On the web
My Algorithm works the same way at nuts.social — find it under Settings → Feed Preferences → My Algorithm, or go directly to /algorithm.
