Am I the only one that just keeps seeing only the same 10 posts on the front page? Almost all about Reddit. Is there just no new content on this app?
Lemmyβs sorting logic needs love. This is the first time itβs really been pressure tested with tens of thousands of simultaneous active users. Were learning that the current logic tends to promote content longer than some people like.
If people are still commenting and voting on a 3 day old posts, those post remain promoted.
Active shows too many old posts for me, but Hot seems to weigh recent posts too heavily, I wish there was an in between
My guess is that it will get sorted out in the near future. Everyone is complaining about it. First problem to fix was scaling and stability though.
Try different sortings. It used to default to "Active," which tends to show days-old posts. For me, "Hot" or "New" seem pretty good. Before the upgrade, anyway. Dunno if that will be changed.
Well, it was good for a bit after the first small wave, now more came and it's the topic of interest again. Make sure you're sorting by all and try top>day, not active or hot
Or actually maybe browse top>week for today so most will still be about reddit today
IIRC, this latest version of the lemmy software does away with the auto-refreshing feed so that may be one reason why you're just seeing those 10 posts. Maybe not though, I've still got a lot to learn about lemmy as well so I could be wrong.
New comments is a pretty good sort option if you want variation, or TopDay
Get yourself a list of subscribed communities and stick to that view, and it'll even out. A lot of people here today have Reddit & Twitter on the brain, and everyone is racing to post the same 2-3 stories...
