Hi All, Salut à tou.te.s

So, by default, the "front-page" whatever how it's called is sorted by "Active" which is showing mostly one week old post, you know the big strike.

I know that I can sort by "new" but is there something more suited to see the recent but popular thread ?

top 6 comments

sorted by: hot top controversial new old

I switch between Top Day and New Comments

[–] Cevilia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I sort by Type: Subscribed; Sort type: New.

As the threadiverse grows, I may consider switching to Active. But for now, I like New.

You may also consider Top Day.

I feel like top of the day only works right as you start your day but after that it just shows you the same stuff

Top Day seems to be working well for me. Since things generally move a bit slower on here than the Reddit firehose, Top Day gives you a nice blend of newer stuff plus stuff that has some active discussions going on

New is always the way to sort, anywhere. Relying on someone else's opinion to guide what you see is like chewing second hand gum.

But I hate the tedium of having to break in my own gum. Or what if the gum wasn't worth chewing?

One thing you can say about second hand gum is someone thought it was worth chewing.

tongue in cheek, or maybe it's actually gum.
