I’ve seen people say “Sorting by Hot is the problem, sort by Active instead,” and I’ve also seen just as many say the exact opposite. I’m still undecided.
Right now I seem to be sorting by “Network Error”
I’m using new too. Today I even started a topic, didn’t do that very often on the old place!
New is the best for getting new content for sure, but I tend to end up with a ton of 196 memes.
I suppose the solution is to unsub from 196 but I’m not quite bothered enough to go that far.
New
Going by what the FAQ said the difference was, Active seems the better choice for discussion/engagement, while Hot is good for just scrolling through posts and not engaging with the community.
I will likely prefer Active for that very reason, but right now I’m mostly in New just trying to see what communities are out there and have other users.
I want a mixture of hot, active and top.
