Same posts each time I open my app, always the same boring topics about bugs and how people feel, this is getting old fast. Not that I am going back to reddit, but don’t think I will stay on lemmy either.

It does seem that both hot and active are moving pretty slowly. I’ve found that “new” is actually the way to see a constant stream of new content, so maybe giving that a try will help.

I second this, when I selected New, I started to see more interesting content.

I double second this, new is the way, I even found a bunch of new communities (Sublemmys 🤙) this way!

This a thousand times. I mainly lurked on Reddit and I’m trying to actually contribute here. Sometimes I fear that no one will care what I have to say, but someone needs to start the conversation.

Yeah, I’m the same, used to just lurk on Reddit. But with Lemmy trying to engage with the communities a bit more. Its actually quite nice, a small sense of camaraderie as people try to encourage everyone else to contribute.

That and since Lemmy is open source and federated, I feel more comfortable here than Reddit

Contributing does little to help the issue at the moment, as the hot and active sort has crashed and stopped updating since a couple of days ago.

Until that’s fixed, most users will be presented with the same posts every time they visit lemmy.world

Recommend subscribing to some communities local and federated, and then showing your subscriptions, so you’re not viewing only a local silo
