Sorting by new = sado masochist 😅

BlemboTheThird@lemmy.ca 1 year agoYou clearly haven’t been looking very hard. I see it almost every day just sorting by new.

It’s not that bad. One of the major advantages of Lemmy being smaller than Reddit. Once you block the reddit repost bots (there are like 3 and my current instance is straight up not even federated with the instances they’re on anyway) it’s fairly useful to just see articles; helps avoid the trap of only reading comments about articles instead.
I just checked, and my first page right now is several self post questions, one vanilla porn post, an image about the Boost app, and eight news articles. I’d call that pretty standard.

I’ve gone with New too. It keeps things fresh and I’m not relying on the bandwagon of voting or popularity to sift content for me.
It’s tough on some instances though due to the fairly useless reddit repost bots… lemm.ee has a particularly difficult situation as for some reason, trying to view the profiles of the reddit repost bots doesn’t work when signed in, so I can’t block them. Just pages and pages of useless reddit posts.

I have an account on lemm.ee that I use occasionally. In my experience the instance’s owner is extremely responsive. You should try making a post on the support community first, and then if that fails, messaging him directly.

You sorting just your instance, subscribed? You can’t be doing new and all /everthing?

Well, our local feed here in lemmy.world is a wilder ride than most…
BlemboTheThird@lemmy.ca 1 year ago
No, I’m browsing all. I don’t even have any subscriptions on this account.

What instance? How do I avoid such horrors on my daily feed?
SVcross@lemmy.world 1 year ago
On which server? I want know what to avoid.
BlemboTheThird@lemmy.ca 1 year ago
haha yes
Honestly not sure about the exact server, but I know from (actually) avoiding clicking on them that they’re usually posted to “The Yiff Community.”

If anthropomorphized gay dog sex is your thing, yiffit.net
SVcross@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Sorry, that’s not of my liking. I’m not gay.

I was exaggerating. It's really quite diverse.
