I have definitely felt something was amiss recently in recommendations. I was hardly seeing any of the usual writers I follow. I didn't specifically notice the one's you've highlighted here but there does seem to be some serious issues with automated and organised AI content that is going below the radar. It's drowning out genuine good writers and is unfair. We write to hear our voices being heard and if they are being drown out and lost, it defies the whole purpose. BTW Yana, I've submitted a new story earlier today (few hours ago!)
