My biggest issue is i can sort post sort to new as default, but if i open a post comments are sorted as hot with no ability to change it in settings.
In addition to sorting by new I recommend switching to 'all' if you currently use 'local' or 'subscribed' for the same reason - you'll get access to more content and the place will feel a lot busier.
I have discovered this is needed for now. I am used to mastodon where opening the fedi timeline is a bad idea on all but the smallest instances
Definitely agree with the tip on sorting. I like to alternate between Active, Hot, and New Comments personally.
Honestly, kbin.social. It allows me to continue to leverage the amazing existing Lemmy corner of the Fediverse while also adding tons of interesting features and functions. Though it's based in php instead of rust, so you win some lose some I suppose lol.
I'm relatively new to the fediverse - what "interesting features and functions" does kbin offer?
It integrates directly with other sources of info in the Fediverse, like mastodon. Organizes related Lemmy communities into groups called "magazines" that span many instances. Allows you to follow individuals and customize what content you see.
I'm trying to get the mLem iOS app...
I realized that if I want more people to engage w/ content, I have to be the change I want to see. I interact w/ content more regularly as a result
Yes, a good rule of thumb is to try and submit at least one good post per day. I don't know how the algorithm works here, but over on the other site, it only feeds one post into the feed of your users if your sub is small.
Everything about Lemmy; bugs, gripes, praises, and advocacy.
