I find it ok for Facebook to do something like their "Top stories" based on what their algorithm determines for me.

But I'm somewhat annoyed that "Most recent" doesn't actually sort the news feed chronologically, and also show everything. The algorithm is still doing something there.

Yes! I want to see everything my friends are posting, not what FB thinks I should see.
Perhaps less applicable to the Facebook issue, but I have found Mastodon to be a potentially viable replacement for Twitter, though it definitely skews heavily towards the tech crowd.

Chronological timelines, and user-driven moderation. Plus there are way more users now than there were when I joined a few years ago.
