I haven’t seen a thread on this in a while. I have been going with top day for a while, but it can be hit or miss. Other sorts don’t seem to display as good in terms of balancing quality and quantity. What is your preferred sort for your main feed?
Edit: Realizing that the people who sort new commented before the hot/top/active people, haha
I’m a masochist, so I usually do “New”. Lemmy is small enough that I can usually get through most of the new posts in a reasonable amount of time.
That said, if I want to a bit chiller experience, I will use “Scaled” which sometimes bubbles up something I might have missed.
Finally, I will use “Active” if I’m really bored and what to see what most people are engaged with… but that is pretty rare.
I could’ve written this. Same answers, same reasoning. Word for word.
Me too. I feel a little unsettled if i don’t get all the way through new by lunch, like i have a bigger task ahead of me after work.
