I think using calibration is another way at combatting bots because if you cumulate the data amoungst people you think are real “follow” you should have a good basis for telling what is or isn’t a good or bad bot.
FB did grew on the idea that it finds the closest peers, follows well the degree of separation concept. About the algo switching, do you think users will want to switch between algos? I personally feel lazy to even swap between typical Following and For You. What I love about Hey is that it allows anyone to plug their own algo and there is open user choice to choose one. However, getting used to one or trying new takes some effort.
