Detroit style is my favorite style of pizza. I live in NC, so other than Jet's (which is a decent version) my best bet is making it myself.
Adam Ragusea has a video on making it at home for anyone who wants to try: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahxKAlbp6DU. Get the special pan, it's not expensive and it definitely helps the overall quality.
Those idle games running in the BG sure racked up the hours. Ran them for more than half a year before I realized I was just wasting power for something senseless.
I would rather see a sort/feed option which limits the number of posts shown from each individual subsciption (e.g. max 3 or 5 posts) and also have a “See all from [subscription]” button imbedded. I know that there is an enhancement request in to change the algorithm for top (or hot?) categories to take/order the the #1 ranked post from each subscription followed by the #2 post from each subscription and so on… which may help a bit.
But, frankly, I think we should just ask XKCD’s Randall Munroe - he came up with Reddit’s HOT sort and definitely has more insight on what drives a good algorithm.
I like the idea of improving the quality of “what’s hot”.
At the moment, the current implementation is pretty weak. Even in this thread, as I’m reading it: Your post is top… even though it’s 25 minutes old and has only 3 upvotes, compared to the second thread which is an hour old and has 39 upvotes.
I can see how Lemmy would benefit by modularizing the “hot” algorithm. This would allow each Lemmy server to install/test their own (or shared) “hotness” algorithm. Eventually, I think, everyone would converge but in the meanwhile it would allow for a rapid exploration of different possibilities.
Timing of upvotes weighs it I believe. If people like your comment not long after it’s made its considered better than getting first vote an hour later.
In true ____ fashion I haven’t verified this myself.
I agree with you that this is not going to be quick/easy to solve and that beta testing several alternatives is a very good approach. Getting the algorithm right is far more of a user experience issue than a programming issue. Right now, everyone is tossing out some simple concepts, but in the end this will need far more of a complex multi-dimensional, logarithmic ranking to get it right.
