    the sorting algorithm is not that great, but thats okay with me. I find it a lot better to be more intentional about what content I get, rather than let Reddit decide for me what to see.

    So what I do is two things:

    • sort posts by “new”. This way I see a lot of variety of posts, and it is not biased by what other people like. Unfortunately it does remain biased towards more popular communities.
    • Go directly to certain communities and view posts there. I can sort by both “new” and “hot” or whatever the other ones are.

    I find this better than the default. It is not the same as reddit, but it is fine with me until they develop a better algorithm. But I would not want a doomer scroll algorithm either like Reddit.
