The score | Notion

The model guesses what you will do. The score is just those guesses, multiplied by a public price list.

How it works

Phoenix looks at what the viewer recently did — up to 1,024 actions — and at each candidate post. It outputs chances: like, reply, repost, quote, share, copy-link, follow, not-interested, mute, block, report, and more.

Home Mixer then does the only math that matters:

score = each weight × each chance, added up

That number is a policy. Not a mysterious “relevance.”

The price list

Published defaults, synced 12 August 2026.

What they do	Weight
Copy the link	+20	The published jackpot
Reply	+5	+20 if you follow each other, on an original
Quote	+5
Send in a DM	+5
Follow the author	+4
Share	+2
Repost	+1
Like	+0.5	A shrug, in this table
Click	+0.4
Watch a video “well”	+0.05	Off if the video is under 10s, or the viewer has 10k+ followers
Time spent looking	+0.004	The simple “did they dwell?” head is 0
Didn’t look	−0.02
Block	−31.2
Not interested	−43.2
Mute	−58.8
Report	−234	One report eats a mountain of likes

Then three haircuts:

Same author again — second post × 0.625, third × 0.4375, never below 0.25
Stranger — × 0.75. Replies and reposts from people you do follow get the same cut. Topic-sourced strangers: × 0.5
New and small — one original, under 1,000 followers, under 1,000 views, can be lifted toward slot 16

What helps

People copying the link. +20.
Replies and quotes. +5, or +20 on a mutual-follow original.
A DM, a follow, a share. +5 / +4 / +2.
Already being followed. No 0.75 stranger tax. </aside>

<aside> 🚫

What hurts

Reports. −234.
Mute, not-interested, block. −58.8 / −43.2 / −31.2.
Living on likes. They are +0.5.
Living on watch time. Almost nothing.
A stranger reply or repost. Taxed, and often already filtered out. </aside>
