I don’t know if others are experiencing a similar situation. My all feed is very sparse with engagement. If I sort top six hours or by top 12 most posts have between 5-10 comments. I feel like there was more in the past? Is engagement dropping off? I’m on lemmy.world as my instance.
You could just follow the communities you are actually interested in.
“All” was shit on reddit so it’s going to be shit on any reddit replacement.
My subscribed list has, like, 4 posts a day. I browse all in a hope to see new communities I might like.
I’ve found more communities that I like by browsing “Hot” and near the end of “top 6 hours” for what it’s worth.
That’s precisely their point: once you filter out all of the noise, you are left with very, very, little substance. And the communities with any substance are active at a ratio that makes them flood your feed with ONLY those one or two topics.
IIRC: Devs added the new filter, “Scaled” for this exact reason. Gives newer and smaller communities a chance in the sun.
Nice tip! I didn’t know about that. Thanks.
