i really like how lemmy.world sorting by hot is a lot better than Reddit hot algorithm (self.fediverse)

Hmm, so far I think I still liked Reddit's algorithm better. Somehow it always managed to combine top posts from huge communities (news, videos, etc) with small niche interest communities on the same timeline. Hot on Lemmy feels almost like a random selection of posts to me. What people post here is good, but the way it's selected and sorted doesn't feel quite as meaningful to me.

I agree with this. Reddits best sort or even hot somehow seemed or felt better with what was shown to you.

Although Lemmy ain’t bad and I’m sure it’ll better in time (even if it stays the same still beats reddits bs now)
