People should be free to allow themselves to be enraged by an algorithm if they want to, just as they should be free to drink alcohol.

My problems with social media are that they aren't transparent about the rage-inducing nature of their algorithms and that they are monopolies. Those of us who want to opt out of the rage are also forced to opt out of our online friends and families.
