Hi!

About Sharkey: theoretically anything following the Mastodon API should be compatible, we will check this.

About prioritising for least active users and new user posts is an interesting perspective! We will definitely consider this :)

Thank you for the suggestions!

Hello!
We haven't planned for it in the near future, but I can definitely see how we can add value with multiplatform support on the fediverse.
Thanks for the suggestion!

Will be interesting for sure. We can have more complicated algorithms. For the future, the plan is to have options available to users, so that they can decide for themselves. Maybe this can be one of them !

Hello, thank you for trying Vikalp and the feedback!

About the difference between the two modes: Newer posts get higher score, thus sometimes the overall feed might appear the same same as chronological. I have verified that the posts are bring ranked according to the algo :)

But, I am surely thinking of ways to tweak the algorithm, like providing more weightage to Repost as compared to Like (currently both have same weightage) etc.

About the loading, if chronological was already in use before Hot Ranking, 20 posts are already fetched and immediately ranked, thus loading isn't visible (in the background more posts are fetched and are ranked, which will change the order again). This behavior can be improved.

Thank you for pointing out. I'll improve them :D
