Is lemmy working on better default sort options than “hot” and “active”? - Lemmy.world

I’m not really sure where to ask this question. Maybe there’s a lemmy dev community where these kind of discussions already happen. I feel like the default front page in Lemmy is still severely lacking when compared to Reddit’s r/all algorithm. I find hot and top hourly to be nearly identical. The top 6 hour is closer, but still not as good as what the Reddit default front page is.

Yeah same. People complain about algorithms but 80% of the posts on my homescreen are posts from the meme pages. There should be a choice for algorithm based feed.

I blocked so many communities because it’s almost just an endless stream of memes

Same. I like memes but when people are just shotgunning every single meme from the last 20 years it gets a little old.
