No. Facebook algorithm produces different outputs for every user. HN's algorithm produces one output for all users.

They are qualitatively distinct. Facebooks' algorithm is demonstrably harmful. HN's not so much.

Do you have proof that demonstrates that FB's algorithm is more harmful than upvotes on HN or Reddit? Not that it's harmful compared to a world before FB, that it's more harmful than an upvote based algorithm.
