I hate it that I miss all interesting low volume communities posts
I wish Lemmy had the Mastodon functionality to create your own lists of communities. I subscribe to a ton of communities and I have a couple of them which are very low volume but I'm very interested in seeing each and every post there. Right now I have to remember them and go to them specifically once every couple of days to check if there are new posts there. This is because the high volume communities push all the other things down so people don't see them and don't vote on them.
In Mastodon I have a #Homies list which is always visible and there I see the posts of people I personally know and want to see each post of them. It's amazing and easy to implement.

Why not sort your subscribed communities by New?
Wouldn’t that lead to the same problem of low volume communities getting pushed out by high volume communities?
That is exactly what I'm doing but the high volume communities just push out so many posts that it's impossible for me to read every single one to be sure that I didn't miss any from the low volume ones.
Which communities are so high volume? I sort by new and don't have any issues reading every single post from my subscriptions
I'm subscribed to 127 communities. I'd say the high volume are all the Technology and World News communities.
Recent attacks for one.
I do top of the hour

high volume comment
I probably missed a couple comment-gems here as I was stuck on a loop reading that same comment over and over
