Even if we’re subscribed to them? Could a temp block exist in conjunction with a subscription? I love c/memes but holy shit no matter which sort I select by they’ve managed to overwhelm my feed.

    I think better algorithms wouldn’t be a waste of developer resources. At the end of the day, the post feed algorithm is the core product, IMO.

    Figuring out how to lower the weights on highly active subs is a good idea. As is ranking smaller subs’ content appropriately.

    For all it’s faults, Reddit’s algorithm was pretty good. There was always a decent mix of small and large subs on my feed.

    Kbin’s post ranking overall seems better than Lemmy’s and that was a major factor in me choosing it as my home base.
