The best thing I was told when I was a newbie:
Try sorting "all" by Top: last 6 hours.
It works great for my frequency of use. I then use "hot" if I return within an hour or two. Some mornings, I'll scroll Top 6 hours for the main stuff and switch to hot for more pressing news while I'm having my coffee.
The next step after Hot is Scaled (similar but boosts less active/smaller communities
I just leave mine on top 6 hours, and it's been plenty for my use, but if scaled can show me smaller communities where I might find new stuff, I'll definitely try that!
took me a few weeks to get to the same setting, way better.
Doing exactly that. Or "new" in my local instance.
Go into your settings and stick the "hide read posts" option on for improved browsing.
Only if you spend multiple times a day on Lemmy. I use Top Week, since I don't. Otherwise I miss the important stuff.
Out of curiosity, what do you do day-to-day instead of Lemmy?
