Why is the feed algorithm so horrendously bad on Lemmy? I keep seeing the same posts I had previously seen/interacted with, even if I refresh the feed. Is it because this platform has not enough users?

There’s not really an algorithm. Closest is sorting by Scaled or Top. The “algorithm” really just boils down to following communities you like and blocking communities and users you don’t like.
If you go into settings you can unset the “Show Read Posts” setting which will do what it says on the tin.
