That’s fine, but most people don’t want their feeds like that. I for sure don’t have time to follow literally all posts from the things I follow - I need some sort of filtering mechanism.
So, how do you know you’re not missing something important or interesting? Whats the point if you can’t guarantee things you want to see aren’t being pushed out of view by the algorithm? To me, that completely defeats the point of using something like that. Without using chronological, I’d regularly get told about things I cared to know, well after the event happened. I’d miss notifications from friends and family that were important to me. Even with favoriting certain things, it made having that feed useless and it’s one of many reasons I stopped using them. It’s useless without knowing that I can see what I care to see.
I would never use an algorithmic feed for friends and family relations, so that’s simply not relevant. Tbh I don’t use “social media” with friends and family at all, I just use chats with them.

I mean this is just FOMO if you ask me. There always going to be something you’ll miss - it’s impossible to follow everything completely. I find it better to get a condensed view of the most important stuff, and then I can skip most of the rest.
Honestly, if honestly, if you’re following that many things that its that overwhelming, follow less things. I regularly clear out things I find I don’t care about or are no longer useful to me. I’ve just found I absolutely can’t trust an algorithm to determine what I may or may not be interested in. There’s always bias in there that’s trying to shift me towards anything that drives engagement or clicks. It’s how they keep people on their site and make money for the platform.
That said, everyone has their choice of how they consume things. These are just two different ways and while I know I can’t stand yours and you can’t stand mine, if it works for you, enjoy it.
