In my personal opinion, this site is completely unusable without heavy content filtering. Just being picky about which communities to follow and users to block isn’t enough.
That said, I realize I might be in the minority on this, so I’m curious what others are doing to preserve their sanity.
There’s so little content, I can’t imagine filtering it. I just browse All, sorted by Hot.
If you sort by Scaled. Posts will be sorted by community size and smaller communities will not get drowned by larger ones.
Edit: added the missing ‘not’ word.
I see. I think you meant “smaller communities will [not] get drowned out” in your first comment. I tried it out and it does show more variety, thanks
Yes! I’m using a new keyboard app which can be a bit finicky.
I don’t see now that’s desirable
It’s desirable if you want to browse diverse, niche and interesting communities without the bias of community size.
I sort by new
I browse my home feed with new, when it starts to run dry I switch to All, which does not happen very often. I filter mostly US politics.
