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.
People actually read r/all? I always just kept to my subscribed communities…
I hear that a lot, but it was the best way to see what’s going on all around Reddit. And when I got bored of that, I’d do the top hourly of r/all. That was much more hit and miss, but it was more fun to comment on those posts.
Mixed things up and let me see some new stuff, I’d do it every few days to get a change of scenery. Now on lemmy I almost exclusively browse all because the content is lacking even with every community in one place.
I use all to find active communities to add to my collection. Kinda hard to add shit when you don’t know what you wanna add. I feel we need a directory sorted by sub count.
