Sorry if this isn’t the right place to add this post. If I’ve put it in the wrong place, feel free to let me know the correct magazine.

I noticed that the on the list of Magazines section here: https://kbin.social/magazines, the “hot” tab shows mostly the kbin magazines. This made me sometimes subscribe to a magazine where the other aggregator like Lemmy already had a duplicate(same purpose).

The kbin version of the magazine shows up first since it has more subscribers, even though the other version on Lemmy has more Threads.

One example I can give is the magazines/communities [email protected] and [email protected].
When I search for “anime”, and sort by “hot”, the kbin version shows up first even though it has about half as many threads because it has much more subscribers.

I guess what I’m trying to say is, maybe it would be nice if I could sort the list of Magazines by number of threads too, rather than only the number of subscribers. After all, the [email protected] has like 3000 subscribers on lemmy.ml, but it has only 200 on kbin.

If I could sort by number of threads a magazine has, then I might be able to find the other options of magazines. I thought there was only one magazine for “gaming” but actually there are two, and they cover the same exact topic. If I only subscribed to the “gaming” on kbin, then I would be missing out on the content from lemmy users. It might help get more unified on the fediverse. It’s great if there’s two “gaming” communities/mags that cover different things, but I think for this case, people would want to be able to see the threads/posts from both (and ideally not have to subscribe to both to not miss out due to misunderstanding)
