Reddit recommendation engine Chrome extension with interactive ThreeJs visualization
Gravitas Threads provides Reddit recommendations based on physics. Posts get “absorbed by gravity” and displayed on screen. The ThreeJs physics engine is based on gravity formula I’ve been working on.
The ThreeJs visualization is pause-able, orbit-able, and when you click on the dynamic nodes (DNs) the data gets displayed. The ui provides a means to follow the content pages.
Recommendations are based on newness, upvotes, and comments. The aim was to eliminate the “Rich get richer” dynamic prevalent on social media nowadays.
