As a software developer, this whole "a handful of subreddits that users consistently filter out" approach sure looks like they searched very hard for the right "neutral algorithm" so they can deflect the blame from what was, at its heart, a manual editorial decision. In the end, just like the current downvoting of minority opinions, to filter what many filter is just another echo chamber amplification so that everyone can continue to live in their own reality, cognitive dissonance be damned. I wanna see a Black Mirror episode on this one day...
