I’m using Jerboa, I don’t know if it is an app thing or a lack of content thing, but when sorting things by “hot” I only see old posts, should I only see things by new?
You can also go to your profile settings and turn off “show read posts”
I’ve been switching to Top - Day which shows some fresher stuff
Hot and active are currently broken and will show stale content. It’s a Lemmy thing not a Jerboa thing. I’m hoping they fix this in the upcoming version that’s in testing right now.
There’s currently a bug with “hot” and “active” where old posts remain at the top. I don’t remember the details but it’s getting fixed in v.0.18 (which is already in release candidate 4).
There are two solutions until the fix is released:
- get your server admin to reboot the server everyone in a while. This seems to temporarily refresh the content.
- use “new” or “top day”. That’s what I’ve been doing.
Try using a different sort - “Hot: Day” is sometimes better than “Active”.
