You should go see the github for lemmy-ui. There is feature request to add the weight of the community into account so we don't only see the most popular post from the biggest communities. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues
That'd be great. Currently 90% of my feed is /c/memes and while I do find them entertaining, I also miss a ton of posts from smaller communities related to my hobbies that I would engage with more.
It's also preventing smaller subs from being discovered and growing.
Seems there's a PR for a "best" sorting option, which sorts by the top post from each sub, and then the second place post from each sub, and so on.
Sounds perfect.
Yeah, I had to leave memes because it was my whole feed. I feel like one of lemmy's biggest potential selling points would be a scriptable feed. There are some small communities I want to see every post in, and other huge ones that I only want to see maybe the top 5 from.
The problem is I mostly use lemmy(or reddit before) on mobile, so sadly all this neat stuff doesn't help me
The sorting systems are server-side, not client.
