A good Fediverse prediction for 2026:

"The new “#ActivityRank” algorithm in #Loops will prove that ethical recommendations & decentralization can coexist. @dansup’s approach—where each instance trains its own #algorithm while surfacing content across the #ActivityPub network—will be recognized as a breakthrough in solving the fediverse’s #discoverability problem. By the end of 2026, the pattern will be studied or adopted by other ActivityPub platforms."

Building a federated For You algorithm for Loops.

It’s called @activityrank, and the MVP will be open source in the coming weeks.

Innovation doesn’t come knocking at your door — you have to build the door, open it, and invite the future in. 🚀

Hello, fediverse! 👋

We’re building ActivityRank for Loops — a smarter way to find videos you’ll love.

It helps smaller servers surface great creators so your feed never feels empty, similar to the "For You" feed on TikTok.

Coming soon. Follow for updates.
