I wonder what other cool app (other than Mastodon) has been implemented based on this protocol.. 99% of the app out there is built based on centralized and traditional protocol, it's pretty cool to see more app built based on this protocol with new use cases

Nextcloud, PeerTube, PixelFed, and others.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ActivityPub - has a list, almost certainly incomplete but seems to cover the major ones.

How do algorithmic feeds work in the fediverse?

Are there already services out there the last slurp in a ton of activitypub feed data and help surface content to users that they will enjoy?

Some of the centralized social media services do this extremely well after you've been using them for awhile (YouTube in particular)

Totally ignorant question - is ActivityPub the preferred way to work against a Mastodon server if you want something like a Twitter firehose?

If not, what is the preferred manner of accomplishing this?

I'm sure you could do that but, thus far, it seems like algorithmic feeds are rejected wholesale by the fediverse communities.

Quoted post unavailable.

I'm afraid so, and you've been posting so many unsubstantive and/or flamebait comments that were going to have to ban you unless you stop. We've already asked you once.

If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of the site more to heart, we'd be grateful.

Check out this article from the other day. It gives a nice info-graphic showing a lot of the major players in Activity-pub. No shortage of options :)
