It's a signal-to-noise issue. There are some smaller communities I'd like to keep an eye on, but the posts from those communities get drowned out by the more active ones. I miss a lot of posts that I would have liked to have seen because of this.
Comment on How should Lemmy sort posts so small communities can compete?

Compete with what? Maybe the small communities should just not suck.

Seriously?
A lot of small communities are small because they are niche or because they are new
