On the Lemmy specific front, Active daily users seems to still be stabilising following the exodus from elsewhere, Comments and Posts both seem to be on the rise though – promising stats all in all.

Its not as good as it sounds. There should be some kind of sorting. I follow #food but I get low-quality content of any random user taking a picture of their refrigerator at the top of my feed just because they posted 1s ago.

Ah, I see. I’ve never used those platforms, but I always thought that I could just see a newsfeed with posts of people I follow.

You can, but the feeds that are supposed to help you find people to follow in the first place are important, and Mastodon’s are awful.

But why should do you need some algorithm to find some people to follow? Unless you talk about a search algorithm?

Do you follow many people? I used to have that issue when I first signed up and was just looking at my entire fedirated feed. Since paring it down to local or follows only, it’s a lot nicer while retaining some of that cozy vibe that I like.
