Hey, I’m subscribed to a variety of communities in different instances (my “home” instance is lemmy.world) all of them with varying degrees of activity but some nonetheless, when I enter the “subscribed” feed, all is overwhelmingly populated by one community. I guess its because this community is way bigger than the others and it overshadows the post coming from others. As its understandable i would like this feed to be more of a mix of all the c/ that I follow, so i guess my question is, Is there a new sorting algorithm in the works? Is it a feature its being worked on? Or is this by design and it will stay this way? Also, is this something that an instance can change on its own? I know lemmy is open source and that probably the host could change something like this but maybe it breaks the activitypub protocol something, I don’t know.

    Currently there are only reddit-like filters like old, new, hot, most comments, top of the day etc. Hope they do make some sort of more advanced filter though, for sure,

    I noticed that as well. I think Infinity (or reddit itself) would sorta hide posts you had already seen, so that your feed would always show “new” stuff. While not exactly a different sorting algorithm, it would help in this cases.
