This is a current bug that will be fixed in the next version I believe. Some instances periodically restart the instance to get this statistic repopulated
sh.itjust.works Main Community
Home of the sh.itjust.works instance.
And to make matters annoying, restarting the service that causes the sorting bug can trigger some other bugs (federation errors iirc). So there isn't a "right" answer until the real fix comes.
That's good to know
I sort by “New” if I want the most recent
I sort by old if I want the oldest
In another thread someone mentioned sorting by Top-Day to get a better lost until the bug fix. It works for me.
I feel this a bit too. Maybe I'm just comparing it to kbin.
It is broken in software. It's a bug that kills the refresher for the database, so the active posts simply don't get updated at all. Update coming someday.
Well @TheDude@sh.itjust.works just manually refreshed at least. Hopefully the bug gets fixed soon.
Hoping with ya! 🤞🔥
I have the same on my own instance too, my guess it's a bug in lemmy.
It is. Version 0.18 fixes it. Someday.
