YSK: Sorting by 'Hot' instead of 'Active' will show more diverse content on Lemmy - eviltoast

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.

    Seems you also sometimes get resurrected 1Y+ necro posts in ‘Hot’, but otherwise yeah you get a lot more post diversity

      I noticed this too but went to lemmyverse.net and subbed to a bunch of new things, and unsubscribed from some memes communities that were posting way too much.

      I have default sort of top 6 hours, works well for fresh content.
