I’ve noticed that most communities mainly show day-old posts with default sorting. Sorting by New or Hot helps with seeing newer posts. Kinda obvious, but I sure didn’t realize until trying it out 😅

I have been sorting by top day and I like it.
Top Day is probably the best sort option so far, but I wouldn’t mind something that updates a little more frequently (e.g., Top for the past 4 hours). Additionally, I wouldn’t mind adding a decay mechanism that gradually pulls posts lower as time passes. As things stand now, if a post is immediately popular within the same hour it gets posted, it’ll remain as the #1 post on Top Day for the next 23 hours before immediately falling off the page altogether the second the post becomes 24 hours old. That leads to stale pages, and if people see the same posts every time they check this place, they’ll assume it’s a dead community and never come back. By implementing something that more gradually cycles content, if I check the site once at lunch and again a few hours later on my train ride home, I should get different content.

i’ve been trying to use top day as that’s typically my favorite filter. however there seems to be some kind of bug where all the newest posts keep jumping into my top-day list at the top. is it just me? not sure where to reach out about this… the posts are spammy porn ones too so it seems like someone else is aware and exploiting this…
That is a bug, there is something about it on github.
i’m having a very hard time using lemmy with this show-stopping bug and can’t figure out how everyone else isn’t just as frustrated as me or why no one seems to be doing anything about it. none of the filter options actually work with ALL and that’s all i really use. i just want to ditch reddit ffs.
Set the page in the URL to Page 0. The bug only happens on page “1” and page 0 is just page 1. You can just refresh the page after that to see new stuff.
It should be fixed soon, their is a release candidate where I believed it was fixed.
