Hot seems meh. I usually go for Top: Day but then I run out. Recently tried most active by comments and liked it.
How y’all sorting your feeds?
I’ve been trying New for about a week. In hopes to upvote things from communities I like to improve engagement.
I literally just started doing that.
Trying to be active in communities and filtering out communities and domains I don’t want. That way it’s sort of a reverse curated list. Not communities I selected to view, but everything except the ones I don’t want to view.
I like that. Thank you for your contribution!
I usually sort by new so someone will actually read and/or respond to my comments lol
Local New to begin with. After that All New
Dumb question. Is local by server (I’m on lemmy.world) or by location (country).
Server. Since my server is Danish my local feed is Danish, which is nice
When I first started Lemmy the general consensus was top 6-hour, so I start with that. When that gets boring I switch to New.
All: Top Six Hours
I used to do top 12 hours but I only see the biggest communities that way so now I’m on hot
Scaled sort can’t come soon enough
New. Always new. Top is all memes I don’t understand. (Totally not hipster lol.)
Subscriptions: New
I go by New I like to see what’s going on as it’s going on 😁
“Subscribed - Hot” is my normal and then once or twice a day I “All - Top 12 Hours” (or Top Day if I haven’t checked in a while).
I’ve got enough subscribed communities that Hot separates most of the chaff and still has a handful of new threads every hour. Then All - Top 12 hours show’s me the day’s best memes.
I start at top of day, then 12 hrs, then 6 hrs, then 1 hr and then new. All, not subscribed, of course. It helps that I’m on a small instance where basically everything is interesting and it’s not flooded with posts.
After going through Subscribed - new, I switch it to all new.
New. Seems most logical imo.
If its all then i do top: 6hr but i sort individual communities as new
switched from active to new comments i have some regrets but i have fear to change back to active
