I’ve seen a few mentions of people feeling like they’re constantly seeing the same content when sorting by active, I’ve since moved to hot, and I’m having a much better time.

    I need something that works well for both small and large communities. Active and top basically only shows big communities. I want some form of “top” that’s actually relative to the norm for that community (both in terms of votes and how many posts the community gets). I’d rather not see completely new posts (I often like someone else to take the “first pass”), but don’t want to completely miss content in small communities.

    In fact, right now, it seems like the only way to see stuff in smaller communities is to specifically browse that community? That’s the only way I’ve ever seen posts from my tiny local city community. It has posts, but they’ve never once showed up on my subscribed front page.

      You’re not wrong about this still needing a lot of work. But just fyi in the meantime sorting by “new comments” turns up a pretty good mix for me.
