YSK That you can probably get better results on Lemmy sorting by Hot
YSK That you can probably get better results on Lemmy sorting by Hot
Why YSK:” So you see post that are not the big reddit related mega threads.
Could you please add a “Why YSK:”? It’s rule #2. It’s also helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. Thank you. :)
TopDay works best for me atm, Hot sometimes keeps posts that are days or at most a week old at the top of my feed
I swap between hot and new. Active gets pretty stale.
When I do that the feed keeps reloading itself, making it very much unusable. Now I understand that to be a bug, but why advice something so broken?
I'm glad to hear thats a bug. I experienced the same thing with the reloading and couldn't find a way to anchor it. I'm happy to be patient and wait for a bug fix.
Until the websockest thing is fixed, I can't browse by that method. My feed gets shit on 2 seconds after loading.
Temp fix: Set page to 0 instead of 1 - https://lemmy.world/home/data_type/Post/listing_type/All/sort/Hot/page/0. This stops the feed from auto updating
LPT: if you want, you can change your default sort settings. Click on your profile in the top right corner > settings > type and sort type.
The real LPT is always in the comments!
(Guess I'm the first one to say that line here on Lemmy xD)
I'm witnessing history. 😎
I prefer New Comments. Keeps the feed fresh with a good balance of new posts and active posts.
It depends. I start with active, then hot, then new if I'm browsing for a long time. But usually active to hot is good.
Also might be helpful to know that you can set your default sort type under you profile settings.
Maybe I'm not subscribed to enough communities, but New is what works for me. Hot and Active are always stale.
It looks like Mlem sorts by Hot by default and I still get all these Reddit posts
I sort new as there isn't enough posts to justify going for hot.
