I agree with the premise, but there's no way it will ever happen.

Most troublingly, “trending news” accelerates news in what is what is known a “feed forward” loop: i.e. the more we (and external bots and trolls) click, the more we will see an item. This reduces visibility of other news, resulting in “groupthink” that shrinks our perspective. Trending news algorithms can be adjusted but will always create “observational bias” in that we react most to what we see most.

This describes Reddit to a T. Definitely a feed forward loop if there ever was one.
