I’m subscribed to several dozens communities, but on the main page they usually appear the same ones over and over (except when sorting by “New”).

On Reddit I grouped them by topic and the weight of giant communities was diluted and I believe there was some sort of algorithm too.

But, is there any way to give more importance to posts coming from smaller communities on Lemmy from Jerboa?

    I’m not sure the active and hot sort options are working as intended

    The same posts are at the top from 7 days ago for me

    Sorting by new is ok at the moment due to the lower number of posts

    I’ve had to unsubscribe from some of the larger communities. They were overwhelming my feed to the point where it was unusable. It wasn’t helped the fact people were just posting repeated links to the same articles and news stories.
