I've been going to new, and then going to the second page to avoid post bursts. I just refresh when I want new stuff. It's worked pretty well for me so far. Hopefully 0.18 is out soon and fixes the bursting and hot/active algorithm issues
Was going to say, be brave, sort new. Actually quite a lot going on which is nice to see.
Thanks, I thought I was doing something wrong but I guess this is a common issue then. Bad timing to have such a weird user experience just when we're having an influx of new users, who will surely get frustrated.
I wasn't around then, but apparently the functionality that led to bursting was added when Lemmy was much smaller, so it would just update with 1 or 2 new posts at a time since there were so few. When it ballooned it pretty much broke that unfortunately.
that makes sense
Ok good tip. I'll follow you for some more
This is a really good and I think it should be default, after trying it.
even better.. if you're a constant refresher like me do top + 3hr
Yeah I just did that, because I was tired of seeing the same post ever since I made an account here. I can actually see the new content now.
