I wish Lemmy had the Mastodon functionality to create your own lists of communities. I subscribe to a ton of communities and I have a couple of them which are very low volume but I’m very interested in seeing each and every post there. Right now I have to remember them and go to them specifically once every couple of days to check if there are new posts there. This is because the high volume communities push all the other things down so people don’t see them and don’t vote on them.
In Mastodon I have a #Homies list which is always visible and there I see the posts of people I personally know and want to see each post of them. It’s amazing and easy to implement.
There’s a new “best” sort in development that will help fix this issue
i would like a random sorting in a given time frame. for example, random 6h.
same as top but wirh posts ordered randomly.
this mitigate your problem but not solve It entirely.
Random sort? How do you do that?
you don’t, i just wish you could
This isn’t a permanent solution but this could be a temporary solution until this gets implemented by the lemmy devs. If you are already using an app and are on Android Summit for Lemmy supports multi-communities.
Ah interesting, I’ll check it out, thanks for the tip!
I sort by all/new comments and block the communities I’m not interested in
Sync app curraits your feed so that you only see posts from what you’re subbed to, you just have to switch from “everything” to “subscribed.”
I am always only on subscribed.
