No algorithms.

Could we please use words for their actual meaning?

How would you say "no obscure algorithm to determine your timeline, hiding posts of people who follow and showing posts of people you don't" without having to write a full paragraph each time?

"No algorithms" is a worse answer to this question than "no timelines", "no posts" and "no people".

"No trickery" maybe. "No recommendations" is another.

"Algorithmic timeline" might be appropriately specific?
