Idk how to explain it and I imagine it’s been said plenty of times by now but it’s just, way easier to engage with posts here, usually on Reddit I’d just ignore the whole commenting aspect and just scroll through media.
I like this change, it reminds me of older social media platforms I used to use that were fairly small, player.me for instance.
I was super sceptical about the whole fed thing, but now we have apps (Memmy!!) it’s exactly like Reddit more or less.
Yeah it’s really nice to know people will see and reply to your shit.
I’ve also noticed the filtering options seem better recently? Hot used to be shitty and active gave too much hours old stuff (but good to catch anything you missed)
Found this under hot, so I’m rewiring my consumption to sim my engagement to the newish posts here.
Shit rocks, fuxk that other place. Who needs em!
It’s kinda weird to have a social media platform be actually social, yknow what I mean lmao
I think there was a rollback or smth that was causing older posts to crop up and it seems that’s been fixed
“Active” is still a bit weird with that. I wouldn’t really recommend it as a sorting algorithm unless you’ve been gone a week or something.
I am very curious as to the general algorithm behavior differences between hot and active. I wonder if anyone knows or if it’s hidden under the hood or something
