Feed & DiscoveryMy Algorithm

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

  1. Open Settings.
  2. 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:

  1. Tap Add on the section you want to change.
  2. Search the topic list that appears, or type your own custom topic.
  3. Tap a suggested topic (or your custom one) to add it — it shows up immediately as a chip in that section.
  4. 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.
