maybe an unpopular opinion, but i don’t care so much about lemmy growing. it’s great right now, having achieved a lot of growth recently bringing lots of interesting content and community, but still not being so big to the point where all the disadvantages of a reddit-sized userbase start to show.

Yeah it doesn't have to get as big as reddit and I don't think it ever will, but at least right now I feel my "All" feed doesn't really change that much within 2-3 days so I'd like a couple more users on here^^

Dumb question, but have you tried changing from "Active" sort type (the default) to "New"? I had the same problem till I found that with lemmy's size at present, "New" is better at bringing you actually new posts from the past few hours rather than staying the same for days. Though maybe that only works for me because of the number of communities I'm subscribed to. Which is another thing that might help; discovery is a little difficult right now so best to use an external site like https://lemmyverse.net/ to find communities that interest you.

I mostly used "Top day" recently, "New" isn't really good with "All", more with "Subscribed".
Browsing lemmyverse.net is useful when I actively want to search for a specific community.
With the current size of Lemmy, I mostly use "All" because I might find interesting stuff from comunities that I didn't think of before.
