I exclusively surf "top 6 hours" and I've actually noticed an uptick in niche community content, lately. Different kind of growth, maybe a sort of settling into itself, finally.

If everyone is browsing by top-6-hour I think we need to rethink the sorting of things.

Oh yeah, the sort here kind of sucks. Also just using the site, you lose your place/sort if you click into a link or the comments. Like, if I'm on page 2 of Top 6 Hours, click a link, and then click back into the scroll.. pretty sure I just see the first page of Active again until I either refresh or change pages.

That could definitely be improved as well.

I don't think Voyager has this problem. Highly, highly recommend, both on desktop and mobile. The UI is slick enough that it's kept me here. All I do is laugh at shit memes but it's perfect

That's a bug they're fixing in the next patch I think

Thank God I thought it was just me!

Are you using any app, or just through a browser? On a mobile browser, I find the back button to take me to the previous page of posts (so if I clicked into a comment thread on page 3, hitting the back button takes me to page 2). It's definitely odd.

Lemmy sorting has shit ever since there was enough content here to make sorting necessary. It's been five months and it hasn't been fixed.

Lemmy desperately needs a fork.

Take a breath. Scaled sort is coming in the next version.

I sort by New. Bring it all on.

[–] IMALlama@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

I subscribed to the communities I care the most about and sort by subscribed and new. That said, across 20 communities it's probably something like 10-15 new posts per day so after I get through those and interact it's off to all.

But I do try to engage in the communities I want to see grow.

New gets... Weird

[–] 7u5k3n@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

That's all I scroll as well. It's not a bad experience over all

Bro, I noticed the same, it has been a long time since I played around with the sort types, I basically settled with Active and hid all seen stuff, now I feel I get different content with other kinds of sorts.
