Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!
Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!
Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.
So how’s it going?
Sometimes I have nothing worthwhile to contribute, so I just lurk…
Just go read the All->New feed, upvote stuff you want to see and comment on things when you have something to say. It doesn’t have to be groundbreaking, just comment that you enjoyed reading it to encourage the user to post more.
In terms of the local communities, go check the news and post interesting articles. For me, Lemmy has been the first place I’ve read various breaking news stories. That’s something that stopped happening for me on reddit for some reason.
I do scroll All>New sometimes, there’s a lot of duplicate posts to different communities I’ve found though. I tend to use that and switch between that and Top>6 hours and Top>12 hours as well. Sometimes I want to read other peoples comments which New won’t have. Hot doesn’t seem to work properly, it always ends up bringing up lots of old posts.
I should try just posting a bit more.
Yeah the Hot (and by extension Active) feeds have a known issue where if an old post is federated to us it doesn’t get it’s rank updated. This should be fixed in the next version.
I often read the Top Hour. This helps keep content fresh while having at least some level of popularity ordering.
