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.

      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.

      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.
