All this did for me was escalate the memes on here enough to finally make me block c/memes and various imitations…
Understandable. Lemmy’s ranking logic kind of sucks. The memes are crowding out other content.
Kbin too. But, honestly, it's not the fault of the memers. One of the things that both Lemmy and kbin are gonna need is a reasonable way to recommend starting content.
Showing all is okay when there's virtually nothing on the Threadiverse, but it's a firehose weighted towards high-traffic communities as the Threadiverse activity ramps up.
Maybe have an option to show, instead of just "all" or "subscribed", "recommended".
Ideally it'd be nice to try to recommend based on existing subscriptions or viewed content, but short of that, one approach might be to only show a percentage of posts on high-traffic communities, and as traffic rises, reduce that percentage. So you see a few posts from high-traffic communities, but not all of them. That'd help with discovery of lower-traffic communities.
Same.
