This is something all clients do. All of them. Nobody is using a client that doesn't do this. The client has to do this or it would have nothing to do.

There is no such thing as an executable software program without algorithms. It has to contain some set of instructions that are used to compute something, otherwise, it's a data file, not a program.

All we are discussing is whose algorithms users can use where and how easily they can customize them or view the logic behind them. The "Nostr Ethos" is not "Stop people from developing or using algos you don't like". It's "Make algos personal again". Allow people to customize them, turn them off, add their own, buy one and plug it in, etc.

You could make an algo that searches your feed for notes about astronomy and puts a little ✨ emoji in the top-right corner of the note, for instance.
