Sorry, i don`t know if this is the correct community to share my thoughts, but I'm wondering if lemmy team does trending posts instead of communities.

As most of us know, trending widgets are to attract the attention to specific topics, and titles play a big role in this. i believe if lemmy team switches the trending communities in the sidebar to show trending topics the widget will paly bigger role to extend the reading time.

Not in the sidebar, but, you could switch your homepage feed to All communities and sort by either active or hot to get the same effect. That's where they would pull their posts from in this case anyways.
