They can randomize (with bias for hot/recent content) entries on each page, but paginate them. FOMO will keep people clicking next even once they recognize some entries.

I doubt they would do that, it's just weird. But even still knowing how many pages you went through is already good
then we pass a law to prevent randomization
Yep. continue regulation until abuse stops
