I haven't seen a thread on this in a while. I have been going with top day for a while, but it can be hit or miss. Other sorts don't seem to display as good in terms of balancing quality and quantity. What is your preferred sort for your main feed?

Edit: Realizing that the people who sort new commented before the hot/top/active people, haha

Active in my subbed communities and hide read posts, that usually gives me a similar experience that I had with Reddit (and using Boost or Sync for Reddit sometimes makes me forget where I am lol).

Sometimes I sort it to the top 6, 12 or 24 hours though.

Scaled is the default account sort as I find it the best when I am browsing Lemmy on a PC/Lap (which that would be like 1% of my total Lemmy usage, just like Reddit lol).
