Not sure if this fits here, feel free to remove if not.

I’m sure the algorithm must be working as intended, but I always see a lot of rapid-fire posts under each other when browsing “Hot”. Is this normal or am I missing a setting?

    I am still having a hard time picking my default feed. Should it be active or hot? Should I remove read posts or keep them? If anyone has suggestions I would love to hear

      Imo active is boring, you get threads of 2-3 days ago where people are posting comments in. I like things to be actual

        Top-Day for a daily check-in of what’s going on. Scroll like a few pages, or just 1 page if you don’t have much time.

        Top-6-Hours would be if your employer isn’t looking at you all day, and you are able to sneakily browse Lemmy throughout the workday.

      for now, removing read posts will empty your feed quickly. Active is good for a bit, but it becomes repetitive quickly. Hot is good for when this happens.
