Hmm, so far I think I still liked Reddit’s algorithm better. Somehow it always managed to combine top posts from huge communities (news, videos, etc) with small niche interest communities on the same timeline. Hot on Lemmy feels almost like a random selection of posts to me. What people post here is good, but the way it’s selected and sorted doesn’t feel quite as meaningful to me.

I think size of the community should be factored into the ranking, at least a little bit.
