Comment on Niche Communities won't be able to reach their true potential until lemmy adds a sort that takes engagement into account.

I mentioned scaled sort in my post. Yes it boosts communities with less activity (in practice this tends to be midsized communities as I mentioned in my post), but it does so generally. What my post is advocating for is a sort that boosts the communities you tend to engage with a lot, not every community that is less active.

Oh, you can also select to see only subscribed communities, and then apply scaled sort. This is my go-to sort after exploring top-6h for a while.

  That’s what I do. As I mentioned in the example in my post.

    I see you talked about using scaled, but not scaled in conjunction with subscribed. I reread your post and still don’t see it. Sorry.
