Has anyone found a way to stop “All” from pushing the feed down even while I’m scrolling through? It’s already a bit painful now… don’t wanna imagine this in a year or two, with many more users.

    I think the main feed is a bit of a mess. They really need to get the algorithm for hot and active fixed so it feels more like the Reddit front page.

      I agree. “Active” and “Hot” display the same threads for days. “New” is essentially just a flood of 2 or 3 popular communities.

      I wish there was an “Active but hide all the posts you already looked at today” option

      The tricky part is defining an algo for hot, it’s a bit different than reddit since some instances may have many people, and local may have fewer, so there should be a balance such that posts from larger instances don’t overwhelm local instances perhaps.

        I don’t disagree it’s tricky. But it’s necessary if Lemmy will ever be a Reddit replacement.

          Oh absolutely! Looking to get it running locally so I can start building something out and trialing something. Trial and error iteration would work well here I think

    +1. It’s extremely annoying. I have been clicking on and upvoting wrong posts all over the place.
