I still haven’t decided on whether top, hot or scaled is the best sort. I feel like all of them feels “wrong” somehow. Any ideas?

    I check active/hot interchangeably, and then use the 1 hour/6 hour/12 hour filters, depending on how long it’s been since I last opened the app

    So far scaled seems nice to get the little ones higher up. AFAIK you can’t pre-make custom lists as some communities are perhaps more fun if you go for newest (comments) but then the small ones might get lost in the chaos.

    Ideally, I would set scaled top 6-hours or something?

    I went by scaled on my previous instance because I enjoy seeing small communities posts as well and they easily drown otherwise.
    However piefed doesn’t have that sorting :(

      This is how I do it but be aware voting through this method leads to shitty mods banning you under the pretence of drive by voting. Doesn’t stop me but just FYI.

          I would be surprised if they haven’t automated it at this point. I’ve been meaning to post about it since it’s reeks of vote manipulation to me but I’ll give it some more time first.

          Their justification is you’re not a participant in the community, yet you’re voting. Of course theres 0 reflection on the content coming out of their subs comm and it has no weight in the decision.

          For brigading I can understand but a couple of mods have a very low bar for it. One banned me recently because of it. Likely because two low effort post made it to all in a short window from a meat base comm. I’ve downvoted vegan post more often back in the early days and they dgaf.

            Funnily enough I was just banned and blocked by a mod when I commented on a post mentioning that they’ve accidentally reposted an image they’ve already submitted. Kind of surprised since I recognized the username and thought they were decent enough as a user.

      Ayy, this is the way (and once you view enough you switch to hot and then to active, then you exit and return in ~40seconds and start over)

    My default is hot for subscribed, although i should also try scaled to show smaller communities.

    And if I hit posts I recently browsed, I changed it up to Top 12 hours or top of day for all to see some ‘newer’ things.

    I wasn’t sure early on but found those worked well for me.
