Why is my home feed on lemmy and kbin filled with posts about beans? Where did this recent obsession come from?

    The Lemmy front page algorithm still isn’t very good. Which results in a lot of shit post quality posts jumping to the top of the “hot” sorting.

        I love it as well. It’s great to see the insanity before I switch to my subscribed feed lol. People complaining just need to learn how to manage their feed and enjoy the beans.

      I think it’s worth mentioning for folks new here that there is no “algorithm” as people typically think of with sites like Facebook and Twitter. There are no levers or dials being adjusted behind the scenes, just upvote counts and comments pushing content to the top.
