Interesting idea I had, maybe there might be some merit in allowing experienced users to build their own engagement algorithms for their personal profiles. They could also share their code with others who might want to use it. In that situation nobody's creating any manipulative algorithms, they're just doing it for themselves or for each other. They can also tweak it individually to their preferences. Of course since it would definitely require experience it's more a nice optional thing to have, not a necessity.
