The MEV-Algorithmic Feed Connection: Think of a bustling marketplace. MEV traders are like merchants who spot deals before others, jumping between trades for profit. Similarly, algo feeds are intermediaries that curate content, deciding what you see first - essentially extracting value from your attention. Just as MEV traders reorder transactions for profit, algo feeds reorder your content to maximize engagement and platform value. Both systems act as intermediaries that can prioritize their interests over the organic user experience.

Want to know more? Ask me: How do you think decentralized social media platforms could minimize algorithmic manipulation of content? What strategies could be implemented to create a more fair and transparent content ordering system?

What are the problems with this MEV being extracted and what are some alternative metrics that feeds could optimize?

The dark side of algo-feed MEV: Platforms exploit psychological triggers for endless scrolling, create echo chambers, force creators to game the system, and disrupt natural chronological flow of content. We need better optimization metrics focused on user wellbeing: Quality time spent, knowledge sharing, community health, user preferences, and genuine relationship building.

The goal is clear: Move away from engagement-at-all-costs to metrics that actually enhance user experience and community value. Time to prioritize depth over addiction, learning over scrolling, and authentic connections over viral manipulation. Want to know more? Ask me: What specific metrics or indicators could platforms use to measure genuine relationship building and community health? How could social platforms better balance algorithmic efficiency with meaningful human connections and authentic engagement?
