Hi guys, I’m on lemmy since the reddit api announcement and am subscribed to tens of communities. When I’m setting my feed to watch topics only from Subscribed communities (hot/active), I see a lot of topics from the same communities, like 10 topics in a row from 1 community then 3 from a different one and again from the first one. My point is that I want to get diversed topic from all subscribed communities ( I know there are new and hot topics there) and not seeing repeated communities only. Is there a way to make some communities show less topics or make the feed more diverse (other than I subscribe to the loud ones) ?

    Us early adopters have some advantage in that we have grown with the communities. You’re now looking at a much larger list than we did.

    I would search for stuff you’re interested in and subscribe to them. Then maybe look at the mods and see what else they have posted and commented on. These will likely be people that are engaged well on lemmy and may have similar interests as you. Maybe subscribe to places they are engaging with.

    After you have a solid base of 20-40 communities, use the All feed and sort by newest posts to try and find stuff you may be interested in and are active. That will show stuff from lots of other instances.

      “Us early adopters”

      Did I miss something? It says you joined in June 2023 lol… like four years after the “early adopters”

        Second wave early adopters. If you joined in early June there was like a tenth of the people now.

        Edit: has this place not grown substantially in the last month?
