All, new

I need content

Aneb@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 306d (4 replies)

As I scroll All I just block the communities that I don't want to see, usually German communities because I don't know their language and a lottt of porn communities I don't need to see that on Lemmy when I have google/duckduckgo

usually German communities because I don’t know their language

I don't browse All, but have you tried tweaking your language settings?

Aneb@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 305d (2 replies)

I just did a deep dive into my settings but couldn't find a language preference. I guess I can find common German words and add that to my blocked words filter. They will join Trump and Elon on the blocked list

Which front end? On the normal Lemmy-UI website it's below your avatar image setting, and above your theme choice

I use rocket to view Lemmy most of the time. I see I can block nsfw posts. Maybe I should try it on my desktop later

Subscribed/scaled: this way c/Linux doesn't drown out the rest of my subscribed.

When I'm bored and run out of stuff to see, all/active. When I'm really bored but can't be bothered to go to anything productive, all/new.

I usually use subscribed and local, but I have notifications enabled for a bunch of feeds so I get new threads from those communities.

Note: I am on Piefed which has more options here.

Coelacanth@feddit.nu · 3 pts · 306d

Subscribed/Scaled, mixed with occasionally keeping an eye on Local/New (as I'm on a small instance).

I never ever touch /all.

gabe@literature.cafe · 3 pts · 307d (1 reply)

Subscribed, hot

rimu@piefed.social · 2 pts · 306d

I'm surprised this is not more popular.

sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml · 2 pts · 306d

All hot or all active depending on whether or not I feel like arguing

hanrahan@piefed.social · 2 pts · 306d

Boost and ALL, via Piefed

dontsayaword@piefed.social · 2 pts · 307d

All, top 6 hours

murmelade@lemmy.ml · 1 pts · 304d

With Summit on Android > browse /all > ignore communities/instances I'm not interested in.

Usually all by hot, new sometimes. I like seeing what the different communities have to offer. I switch to subscribed if I need a break from politics.

mistermodal@lemmy.ml · 1 pts · 305d

RSS feeds and then Ironfox or Jerboa depending on whether I want to use Firefox addons.

Sometimes Lemmy posts even appear inconstently in hashtag RSS feeds on Mastodon and its forks. It seems like it should be entirely possible for there to be cross-posting to Lemmy by @ing a community, but it isn't consistent, and sometimes a bug occurs where if person B replies to person A and person C replies to B, A won't see C's comment.

Ideally I would just like to interact with this community through microblogging. This is what app the apps and forks e.g. mbin miss. The platforms should be the same

All + Active and Subscriptions + Scaled

g8phcon2@k.fe.derate.me · 1 pts · 300d

@mudkip@lemdro.id from mbin with NEW. I don't follow enough content for anything else to be particularly necessary.
