    Using the active filter seems to be the worst for that. I find hot gets me the best stuff and then new if you’re desperate. Top for the day is always good too.

    Also change what setting the instance is on all is like old reddit all shows everything from every instance that is federated. Local is everything from the home instance like a watered down all and subscribed shows you only stuff from communities you add. These options have been available on all of the instances I’ve used so far.

    Two buttons and the one is just like reddit but active is trash.

      “Active” sorts by which post got commented on most recently, like what you’d find on a forum. Popular posts tend to get commented more, so they stick to the top.
