I find that Hot and Active give you really old stuff, at least on my instance, that’s like 3-7 days old stuff. New is just new, you know new, no community-assured quality. Top is stuff I’ve already seen. Where do I get a better feed? Can we have like Top 7 hours? Or a mixture of “top 16 hours” and “active”?

What do you do when browsing Lemmy? What are some of your strategies to get good shit while being here? Cuz so far if I try and use the front pages I get bored to shit.

The way I get anything barely worth interacting with from the front page is New Comments. Not the best, but better than the other options I discussed.

That or just, instead of interacting with a lot of stuff, interacting deeply with the few things I find that I like.

    It’s always bothered me that it’s somehow become somewhat of a faux-pas to comment on stuff that was posted more than 24 hours ago

    i-it is??? I always comment on shit that’s like a year old. I don’t care about that hahahah, my problem with the old stuff is not that it is old but that I already saw it. I wanna see new cool stuff!! I just don’t wanna be the one upvoting things in New all the time. Sometimes I just wanna see what all the cool people are doing.
