There is a secret coven of people who sort by new and make or break every lemmy post
It was supposed to be secret, don’t give us away!
I sort by hot, now burn on the stake witches!
And we appreciate them taking out the trash. I’ve tried new when a younger me was on imgur and… let’s just say it wasn’t for me…
The feeling of power I get from being the first upvote on a post in new, then seeing it later in top? Intoxicating!
I always browse newest, not because i want to lift up new posts so more people can see it, but because i only get like 3 posts an hour in my subscribed feed
No, fuck Active. It’s like 2 weeks of old content.
Top 6 hours or Top 12 hours if I’ve been asleep.
Finally someone speaks the truth. Top 6 and top 12 is where it’s at right now.

Active is like two days max in my experience.

I sort by active because the slower flow of content helps me avoid a social media addiction. I just check the few posts that hit the top of my feed every day, then exit Lemmy for the day.
Look at this bastard with their self control and healthy social media habits! Let’s burn them!
I never sort by Top. The only thing I see are just memes and shitposts.

No it’s not like I hate memes and the shitposts, it’s just that they clutter up my feed when I sort by Top.
Gotta read new on all because there’s not enough content
I only sort by top because I’m a bottom.
I have to do top hour because I’m on here too much 😅
And here I thought hot was just the norm
I always sort by new 🤷.

Not really, I’m on Lemmy like… an hour a day probably.
Top is only nice when you first join a community. If you actually want to engage you should be on one of the others
Can confirm, this is me.
I am always on hot. It’s the best middle ground for me.
Laughs in top hour
