You JUST said new.......now you say hot. Heeeeyyyy what is this??? Some kind of scam???

[–] Eiri@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

They're providing options, like a poll.

'Subscribed - Scaled' to catch up, then 'Subscribed - New' to interact.

[–] tunetardis@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago (5 children)

Are there any apps that support scaled? I've tried a few and no luck so far. I like the scaled view.

[–] tunetardis@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

Ah thank you! I will have a look at those.

[–] illi@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

Thunder. Eteriny with the newest update should habe it too, though itis not yet on fdroid :(

[–] Whelks_chance@lemmy.world 16 points 2 months ago (1 children)
[–] FarraigePlaisteach@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

That's the one I use :) I like it. Always a fresh feed every day. I don't view my subscriptions by default though, I view /all with a lot of blocking done over the months.

[–] LordTE7R1S@lemmy.sdf.org 14 points 2 months ago (4 children)

I usually change to new because

  • I usually get the same post over and over for a long time in my feed
  • not from the USA and I'm sick of the Trump/Harris drama
[–] mrvictory1@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I blocked all US news stuff to clear my feed, there are a lot of politics related posts here.

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Same but with porn. Good lord are people horny for the weirdest things.

[–] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Some Lemmy clients offer keyword filtering if you really want to get aggressive about filtering out US election stuff.

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I want to control the percentage of stuff each sub shows me. I want to subscribe to news and world news and politics, but then 100% of my feed is politics, despite the fact that 99% of my subscriptions are NOT politically based.

[–] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

That’s mainly an issue of scale. The niche communities don’t have as much activity day to day so you see that stuff less

[–] mundane@feddit.nu 2 points 2 months ago

You can set it to not show posts you have already seen.

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I'm still waiting for the Harris trump sex tape. The one where Harris has a 12 inch black strapon, and trump cries out in pain.

Then nobody will want for anybody, and I csn nominate myself in the running, vote for myself, and win by 1 vote.

[–] FarraigePlaisteach@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

Top (of which there are several)

[–] kemsat@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

All, top 12 or 24 hours.

[–] ingalls@lemmy.today 7 points 2 months ago

Subscribed - New

[–] Crumbgrabber@lemm.ee 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

If you aren't sorting by new, you have no backbone and will never please any of the gods of war.

[–] kionite231@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

"any of the gods of war" ?

There is only one god of war Kratos :D

[–] Cocodapuf@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I think you just angered Ares. I hope you have the right boons to take him down!

[–] artemisRiverborne@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I do it by new, cuz if not my feed stays the same for like a week

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago (4 children)

Try subscribing to more things. Theres more to Lemmy than just linux.

[–] Zonetrooper@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Absolutely!

Sometimes it feels like there's Linus and politics.

Subscribed - New

[–] mesamunefire@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Scaled and then new in a community.

[–] ekZepp@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

All - New ( nsfw off)

[–] slazer2au@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

New local first ,once exhausted I jump over to new all.

[–] snooggums@midwest.social 2 points 2 months ago

All - Hot mostly.

New when I have been on for a stretch long enough that it is mostly repeats.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Everything - Active. There's too many dead posts, and pointless posts to sort by new.

[–] AndrewZabar@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

I have everything by New. It’s not populous enough yet that there’s anything I need to skip automatically.

All hot until bored, then all new until horrified.

[–] EndOfLine@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Usually in this order

  1. Subscribed - New
  2. All - New
  3. All - Active or Hot (not really sure what the difference is between those two)
  4. All - Top 12 hours
[–] arefx@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 months ago
[–] c0smokram3r@midwest.social 1 points 2 months ago

active, controversial, or new.

[–] FarraigePlaisteach@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

[–] FrankLaskey@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 months ago

Tend to start with top (day) for my subs and then switch to scaled once I get down to posts that are below 100 upvotes or so to see more posts from smaller communities that can’t make that ‘top’ cut.
