Hot seems meh. I usually go for Top: Day but then I run out. Recently tried most active by comments and liked it.

How y’all sorting your feeds?

    I’ve been trying New for about a week. In hopes to upvote things from communities I like to improve engagement.

      I literally just started doing that.

      Trying to be active in communities and filtering out communities and domains I don’t want. That way it’s sort of a reverse curated list. Not communities I selected to view, but everything except the ones I don’t want to view.

      @Tibert the fediverse is still small enough that sorting by new all is a good way to discover communities.

      Though, that might only work for me because I block the biggest meme communities with this account.

        Only posts originating from your instance.

        So only posts made by people from lemmy.world.

        When you post something, the post is on lemmy.world.

        For example, this is your post https://lemmy.world/post/7469149 . If you would post to another community, it would still be lemmy.world/post/xxx even if the community isn’t on lemmy.world. But the post is attached to that community.

        All is all the post from all the communities the accounts in your instance are subscribed to.

    When I first started Lemmy the general consensus was top 6-hour, so I start with that. When that gets boring I switch to New.

    “Subscribed - Hot” is my normal and then once or twice a day I “All - Top 12 Hours” (or Top Day if I haven’t checked in a while).

    I’ve got enough subscribed communities that Hot separates most of the chaff and still has a handful of new threads every hour. Then All - Top 12 hours show’s me the day’s best memes.
