It's like listening to the best band in your town and then comparing it to the music at the top of the global charts. The pure scale means you're gonna get better bands if you include "everyone". But I totally also hope Lemmy gets bigger. As a platform it isn't inferior in terms of UX. We just need everyone to switch.
Tbh, I find most of the music on top of the global charts to be obnoxious bullshit.
That's fair. Let's rather go with a music platform. That has everything.
Change sorting to "Top 6hr". I browse by Hot sometimes but that's my primary sort atm
I find it's better when I sort by top 6h
There is an easy solution to that:
That doesn't have to be a bad thing. I commented on posts that were weeks old or a month old. Reddit had this bad habit that everything older than 30 minutes was irrelevant already.
Sure, seeing old posts doesn't help to create an image of activity. But don't think that something old is irrelevant, unless it's a news post.
