reading from top(6H) right now
I’m using top in 12 hours, which fits better when you browse in the morning and in the evening.
I use 6h because I apparently have no life
I believe that it should be the other way around.
You have too much life, so you frivolously spend it on Lemmy.
Those with no life don’t have time for their own interests and hobbies.
That aside, understandable, have a good day.
I found you on Hot!
I found it on top 6 hours
My Fediverse experience became exponentially superior once I learned that the default sorting options were a bit shite compared to the alternatives.
Lol
I feel validated
The only thing I see now are memes. That’s what I dislike currently about Lemmy. People aren’t active in other communities most of the time. I am not here to enjoy a instagram-like feed, I am here to read and discuss, like in the forums.
This is one thing that Lemmy REALLY needs to work on. The hobby- and topic-specific communities need to grow. Lemmy is currently dominated by like 5-10 communities, which is fine, but it really falls short of the experience I had on Reddit in that regard.
What’s the difference between Hot and Top?
Hot prefers newer posts that are gaining votes and comments. Top prefers the most votes within a specific timeframe.
I do 6, 12, and 24 hours based on how long it was since I last browsed lemmy
I swap between top 24/12/6 depending on how long I’m away.
6 gets shitty because you start getting the random porn pretty quickly.
Thank you !. I was trying to find a noob’s guide to Lemmy.
A tip if you’re used to old reddit and use desktop, check out old.lemmy.world. It as a dark mode like reddit enhancement suite adds to old reddit, and everything is exactly where I expect it to be based on my reddit experience. Since you’re already using a lemmy.world account, it’ll just work for you straight away.
Oh and also, you’ll see that you can list things as “all,” “local,” or “subscribed.” You can pretty much ignore local, and use all or subscribed as your main page.
This! Lemmy became so much comfortable by using old.lemmy.world, almost all withdrawal symptoms went away.
This meme improved my experience, excellent job.
I tried it and your meme disappeared. I had to go back to hot to find it. 🤔
I always start with my Home/Frontpage/Subscribed feed on New. Then, when Ive exhausted that (since I’m a lemmy addict) I switch to All - New. That’s usually enough for me. If my soul still desires content I switch to All - Hot. Your All feed can be pretty good if you block certain communities.
Mfw this is the first post on my 6 hour feed
Hot has been getting better, but yeah, active sucks
Active is literally showing posts from 2-3 days ago
Active randomly shows me stuff from 2-3 years ago lol
