What is an "algorithm"?

An algorithm on social media is a set of rules or instructions used by platforms to determine what content is shown to users. These algorithms analyze various factors, such as a user's interactions, preferences, and behaviors, to decide which posts, ads, or recommendations will appear in their feed. The goal is to personalize the user experience by showing content that is most relevant or interesting to the individual. For example, if a user frequently likes travel posts, the algorithm may show more travel-related content in their feed.
