I seem to prefer top 6 hours personally. It gives you the most updated stuff but has a short enough time period so that you can still check it a few times a day and likely get different posts assuming you are subbed to a good number of active communities.
Yeah, Active and Hot are really good now at mixing new and active content, but when we had less activity or when something big is happening, things tend to get stuck there, and I basically end up having to scroll more than I should.
Top 6/12 hours is the best if I just wanna see what's actually trending for the day and move on.
Wow. I never knew this existed. Thanks!
Also for whatever reason Hot has been dredging up posts from 2-3 years ago.
From what I can tell it happens when someone posts a comment on old posts
switches to all, sees porn
Goddammit
There are way too many memes and that weird 196 community on my hot feed
I’ve blocked the communities I don’t want to see on Memmy but they keep showing up
Me too then I realized they were duplicate communities on other instances. Just blocked them too and no more.
Ohhhh this could be a game changer then! Ty
That's weird, have you tried blocking them from the Web interface so that they will be blocked for you wherever you are?
I tried the lemmy web app and Memmy neither of which Ed worked
I can try in a browser too
The browser should work
This post has helped me more than anything on Lemmy yet. Thank you.
So much better.
My default is actually "New", I only manually change to Hot or Active if I want to see some comments and discussions.
New comments is my favourite so far. Its a good mix of active discussions and fresh posts.
I stick with subscribed»new, so I don't miss anything from the communities in which I'm interested.
Thanks, didn‘t even think of that!

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
