P.S I know nothing about how Netflix builds this (but can make some educated guesses). Lots of companies have their own variations of this problem.

No wrong answers but here are some “basic” ones that smart PMs should look beyond quickly ( HT to
@44 for suggesting I add these). “Sort by engagement/CTR alone” - ducks the core question, naive and impractical. Unless there’s a galaxy version of this reflecting deep insight.Prikaži ovu nit -
Another naive answer: "I'll have a editorial only section and an algorithmic only section" - there are definitely good ideas here but it sidesteps the core issue (you have finite amount of user attention, what do you show them?). The simple version of this is a cop out though.

another naive/bad answer: making early value judgements on certain decisions as "good" or "bad". For example - "netflix promoting their own shows is obviously bad". Doesn't reflect first principles thinking on what the objectives are.

As a lot of you have figured out instantly - this is really a iceberg question. Looks like a simple UX problem but is really about trying to understand Netflix as a system and as a business.

After you retire this I’d be fascinated to see your rubric for it.

Obviously no right or wrong answer. At high level looking for systems thinking - what happens when you influence with editorial or ranking downstream? How does it influence the economics of buying content? How do you trade off the most optimum thing for LTV vs soft considerations
