I was just scrolling through my feed. This whole Firefox Chrome instanced post I have seen literally 15 times. Most of my feed is nothing but that post.
I understand trying to get Lemmy popular. And I understand distributing knowledge of this.
Sorry if I sound like I’m complaining. I want to like Lemmy. But I’m struggling. And I can’t do reddit.
Maybe I need to figure out a different algorithm like more threads to follow?
Maybe I’m part of too many technology threads. :)
Yea, just today I basically decided that I should probably cull the number of “news” communites I’m subscribed to … I noticed that I’m subscribed to a few, which are all basically duplicating each other, and that I don’t need all that in my feed. I imagine similar things will happen over time.
I do think something could be done at the platform level though, where posts that are sharing the same link can automatically be linked to each other a little like a cross-post link, and then such linked posts can be grouped together in your feed.
Don’t know if reddit ever had such a thing (I don’t recall as much), but it sounds like it would be intuitive, still facilitate community diversity, allow users to visit multiple communities on the same issue if they wish, but also allow the user to more easily sift through repeated links.
