MODERATORS
The "Top of All Time" lists on Lemmy are currently dominated by posts from the exodus period, potentially overshadowing excellent content from both before and after this event.
Unfortunately, none of the suggested solutions can be implemented as the required data hasn't been tracked over time by the software.
Visibility-Based Ranking: Factor in how often a post is shown to users by tracking the number of times a post appears in users' feeds and calculating an "engagement rate" by dividing votes by views. Rank "Top of All Time" posts using this engagement rate. This option cannot be implemented as the software does not keep track of post views or the number of times a post appears in users' feeds.
Community-Specific Normalized Scoring: Adjust post scores based on each community's monthly active user count at the time of posting. Unfortunately, this option cannot be implemented as the software does not keep track of the monthly active user count for each community over time.
Normalized Scoring: Adjust post scores based on the instance's monthly active user count at the time of posting. However, this option cannot be implemented as the software does not keep track of the monthly active user count over time.
