I agree with Max, while also thinking we can get a lot better at recommendations based on context and basic data we share (what tags you follow). Our current system is fairly naive. We don't want to start gathering personal data (which I don't think we need to provide the right experience), but there is definitely room for improvement.
Based on my limited knowledge of the topic, I’d say that the most important requirement for proper recommendations is not personal but behqvioural data: who reads what, who reacts to what etc.
Don't you like to read high quality posts by recommendation?

Thanks Ben, just a gentle idea from the experience from using Youtube.
I know that is not easy to do. But it's really worth to care.

You focus on social action. I focus on content quality.
A dataset relating text to chance of enjoyment already exists in the form of likes. No apparent need to gather any extra data.
