Is there any way to modify community subscription weight?

Submitted ⁨⁨15⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩ by ⁨Gsus4@mander.xyz⁩ to ⁨fediverse@lemmy.world⁩

If I subscribe 2 or 3 large coms, all the more quiet coms that I want to hear from get wiped out from the first pages of the feed…is there a way to recover them, by having like an upvote (increase weight by +1) subscribe button in an already subscribed com…or maybe a multi? What do you use in these cases?

  Cool, that helps bring the quiet ones out a bit.

    You can not influence it. Here’s a link with more info.
    
    Lemmy uses the same Rank algorithm above, in three sorts: Active, Hot, and Scaled.
    
    Active uses the post votes, and latest comment time (limited to two days).
    
    Hot uses the post votes, and the post published time.
    
    Scaled is similar to Hot, but gives a boost to smaller / less active communities.

  Didn’t think I had that on a PC browser! For everyone missing it like I did, it’s under your main settings.

Others have already pointed out scaled (my default sort) but I have often thought I would like to see a full feed for my quieter comms. Without making a new only-quiet-comms account or modifying a Lemmy client the only way I’ve thought of is to subscribe to the RSS feeds (but that means using a different app and managing two sets of subscriptions).
