The problem is currently that by default it shows active posts, and its been the same posts for days now. What options do you use for sorting when doomscrolling to see interesting content?
I’ve been primarily sorting by new. While on other sites I don’t like sorting by new because you’ll see 90% low-quality posts, Lemmy is small and passionate enough that nearly all posts will be good quality.
I keep it on Active, but I have “Show read posts” unticked, so posts i voted on don’t show up again
mine is: subscribed + new comment.
subscribed because I can control what I saw on homepage and new comment because “new comment” not only include old post with new comment, but also freshly created post.I always sort new, check subscribed first and all second. Sometimes I check all and active. I keep adding communities as I find them, so I’m sure at some point I’ll be fine with just subscribed new.
Sorting All , new and new comment. Has being super fun.
At the moment after sleeping I usually sort All and Hot or Active just too see what has being popping while i was offline. But throughout the day is New and New Comment. But that’s because I really am enjoying participating more than lurking.
My problem is that the most popular comms in my subscriptions dominate my feed over anything else. The algorithm really needs to be tweaked to show a good mix of every subscription feed.
