Threads is a social media app by Meta that is testing out a new way of user interaction. Users can swipe left or right to provide feedback to the algorithm on what content they would like to see. This feature, known as “Algo Tune” by Threads, aims to improve content selection based on user preferences.
The process is straightforward – when a post appears on Threads, simply swipe left if you dislike it and swipe right if you like it. This will help the algorithm remember and curate content more effectively for the users.
This approach may sound familiar as Meta’s representative confirmed that the concept was inspired by a popular dating app. However, this feature is still in the testing phase and is not yet available to all users.
