remixtures, Portuguese #SocialMedia #Algorithms #ContentModeration #RecommendationEngines: "Six observations on ranking by engagement:
- Internet platforms rank content primarily by the predicted probability of engagement.
- Platforms rank by engagement because it increases user retention.
- Engagement is negatively related to quality.
- Sensitive content is often both engaging and retentive.
- Sensitive content is often preferred by users.
- Platforms don’t want sensitive content but don’t want to be seen to be removing it."
