Hello all,
Wanted to open a discussion on Lemmy’s post sorting options right now. I don’t have any experience with implementing this type of thing but right now the algorithm appears… Off? For example, ‘Active’ gives me a lot of posts over a day old but ‘Hot’ may as well be ‘New’ i.e. more recent posts with little engagement.
I don’t know if it’s due to Lemmy still picking up steam or a fundamental flaw with the algorithm. Like I said, I’m really curious to hear the opinions of those more knowledgeable.
I’d really like to see a “Unread” filter, that shows posts that has not already been up/downvoted or clicked
It is already an option, go to profile settings and unmark “Show Read Posts”.
But when is a post marked as read? Do I have to click on everything or vote for everything?
You need to open the post to mark it as read. Expanding picture does not count. There are discussion on improving this https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/384
