I’m not really sure where to ask this question. Maybe there’s a lemmy dev community where these kind of discussions already happen.

I feel like the default front page in Lemmy is still severely lacking when compared to Reddit’s r/all algorithm. I find hot and top hourly to be nearly identical. The top 6 hour is closer, but still not as good as what the Reddit default front page is.

    I recognize this as well. Mostly I want to know that discussions are being had about a front page sort, and what those discussions might be like.

    Even without the Reddit user count, I think the sorting should be better.

      My only complaint is that it keeps showing me stuff I’ve already seen, even though I have “show read posts” toggled to off.

        Is that a feature of an app? Or built into Lemmy? I use Memmy, and that is a feature in there.
