While still algorithmic, a strictly chronological timeline is not really manipulatable, at least not in the same way

Spamming is the trivial way to manipulate chronological feeds. It is so bad that they need active moderation or ranking to prevent a board from going into a state of absolute uselessness.

I haven't used Facebook in 15 years, but I don't recall spam being a problem. I saw my friend's posts and replies by people who are friends with my friend.

That model may not work with all social media, but as far as I remember it worked for Facebook.

Friends' posts are a tiny fraction of what you see on FB nowadays.
