MODERATORS
I don't want them blocked outright, though. I just want better feed algorithms. It shouldn't just be whoever spams the most takes over my entire feed. The number of posts from any given community that show up in subscribed, local, all, etc. should be limited so that smaller communities aren't pushed out of existence.
I just prefer sorting options that don't weigh posts. Like New or New Comments. I don't have nearly as many similar posts appearing on the front page sorting by New Comments, and only posts with high levels of discussion stay on the FP.
If you're going to sort by things that count all metrics to determine what's "popular," it's always going to be memes and low effort bullshit.
