I really want to like lemmy, but it’s difficult. I’m new to all this fediverse thingy, and I might just have old habits and perceptions how things should work but… I keep seeing the same posts more than once, iOS experience is not that good really, sometimes I see dead posts from 2 years ago for some reason, despite having subscribed to like 30 communities there aren’t that many new posts to read.

Part of it probably that subreddits had millions of people so a lot of posts every minute, but it still feels underwhelming.

It’s not as doomscrolly. Maybe I should find something else to waste my time on haha

What is your experience with lemmy? Maybe I just do things wrong. Let me know

    The problem is the client in our phone must have a sophisticated, user controlled and user tuned, content recommendation algorithm that does basic things like.

    Filter out penis pill spam But show you the same exact post 5 times. Put new and highly upvoted content first Inspect to make sure they are not counterfeit Give low observed content a good chance, we don’t want echo chambers or attention grabbing positive feedback loops Know what you like, and, based on what people who like the same things as you, find things you might like that you haven’t been exposed to yet
