Always use new ... like a normal person.
Algorithms are for people who never learnt to tie their own shoelaces.
A really good example of when not to use an algorithm but it is forced upon the users is Facebook Marketplace. Who wants to see suggested items in a competive secondhand buying market??? It's a first in best dressed environment. Shows how out of touch with reality FB Devs are.
Completely agree on that. I've never bought anything on FB, just because it was f*ing annoying with the suggestions. FFS, if I wanted to buy something, I'll look for it, OK ๐.
