The Science journal article has a lot of information if you click through.

I don’t see in the results section any conclusion that users “hate” chronological feeds.

Their results say things like less engagement and clicks, less time spent in app etc.

How did they measure whether people or hated the change? I don’t think they did.

I personally think chronological is a way better system and Meta et al would do whatever they could to disprove this so they can control the feed with manipulation.

I put a 10-digit padlock on the fridge for a week, told my family the combination, then took it off.

According to engagement and usage metrics, my family loves the padlock, and hated it when I remove it! Refrigerator engagement went from 57 seconds down to 3 after the padlock went away!

Hahha I love it!
