An algorithm in general is just like a recipe. It tells the computer how to do a certain thing.
In the context of YouTube, Facebook, Tiktok, etc… the “algorithms” specifically relate to how those sites decide how to look at what you do, how to look at what your friends do, how to do whatever, in order to show you content that will cause you to spend more time on their platform, or even to filter out some content while promoting some other content, to give you the impression that more people think one thing or another. This is where those algorithms can become dangerous and toxic.
