And the best of reddit gets reposted elsewhere. It's like a hierarchy of content getting worse until you're on facebook. That's where it ends and the worst crap accumulates.
Showerthoughts
A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
About half of the stuff on Lemmy is just ‘what i hate about Reddit’
If you sort by the default Active, which is self-reinforcing, yeah. Sorting by New or Top Day, not much is about reddit recently.
I highly recommend users setup their subscriptions, and set their default feed to subscription and new. This will get them engaging with conversations. Use the All feed to find new stuff to subscribe to. This is a fun experience.
And new is not bad at all (at least for me)
It is a better way to sort during normal hours, but unfortunately I work a weird shift (4a-12:30p EDT) and the "new" page doesn't seem to change much during my normal breaks and lunch times and activity doesn't really seem to pick up until around 6:00 p.m. local time, which isn't far off from when I need to be in bed. We need to get some Australians on this platform.
bad for you that i am a eurobean. but yes, i agree
For now
I really hope so. I’m tired of reading about reddit.
Try sorting by new and look for some communities like illegallysmolbirbs or illegallysmolcats so your subscribed tab is more interesting
