did the algorithm get better or did lemmy just get more populated? - eviltoast

Seems like the feeds are more active and I’m not hitting things with 3 upvotes 20 minutes into my scroll. Did Connect change something, did Lemmy or are we just seeing some population increase from Boost?

    I’m looking forward to the new Scaled algorithm that comes with 0.19

    Scaled: Like hot, but gives a boost to less active communities

      That’s going to be a game changer. There are so many smaller communities I never see in my feed that will stay small forever because their posts just stay buried in my feed and no one sees them.
