derf82, in I feel like /c/memes has taught us a valuable lesson today: Would it make sense to develop a feature to block a comm from our feed for a selectable unit of time (1 hour, 1 day, etc.)?

I unsubbed for the same reason. Some funny content, but it was the only content.

Maybe if they code something like a multireddit so you could read specific subs without subscribing.

Nemo, in What's your real-life superpower?

Apparently, lucid dreaming. Been doing it my whole life, requires no effort to initiate.

Hypnosis4162,

Do you find your quality of sleep low?

Nemo,

How would I compare? But no, I do fine.

HobbitFoot,

I lucid dream and I find that when I lucid dream, that’s when I’m getting the best sleep I can get.

Maldreamer,

Man it takes me maintaining a dream journal, some MILD affirmations now and then and about 15 Reality check per day to even get atleast one lucid dream in a week and when i get busy and couldnt keep up with my dream journal and reality check, i would need to start from scratch to get to that previous level and that could mean month gap between lucid dreams.

TomaTomaToma, in Be honest, do you still use reddit?

Only if it is a google result. I still have sync app installed :(

jivandabeast,

Same here but for rif, had to finally uninstall it because it was getting frustrating.

But honestly lemmy content is really fire and I don’t really feel the need to look elsewhere, except for some niche communities. I’m thinking about opening a second private instance that just mirrors the few reddit communities i miss.

raubarno, in What's your real-life superpower?

Analytical skills and working memory (RAM)

What happened?

freamon,

Everyone became convinced that ‘old memes’ were the new thing (possibly in response to the popularity of Antique Memes Roadshow) and they swamped out everything else on All

corgi92,

Everyone spamming old memes

p0ppe, in Be honest, do you still use reddit?

Nope. A couple of clicks via Google, but that’s it.

IceGoddessEmma,

at least you still can, 90% of the time i get private communities, thanks admincraft

Chronophos, in Be honest, do you still use reddit?

I still use it for Google searches. For the subreddits that aren’t private anymore, it’s still a good resource to get reviews from actual human beings. But I made use of Power Delete Suite to both edit and delete all my comments, and I deleted my accounts back in June.

StankFlipper, in Be honest, do you still use reddit?

Completely out and I had RIF for at least eleven years. They got rid of a part of me; I don’t want shit to do with the site anymore. I’d also be out of Facebook if it weren’t for messenger. I look to Lemmy for updates on the dumpster fire that is Reddit now.

Doesnotexist, in Be honest, do you still use reddit?

Not once.

No I dont’t actually.

scottmeme, in In which game did you spend the most hours?

1200 hours on Halo The Master Chief Collection on steam. And absolutely countless more on Halo Reach on the Xbox 360.

No, and I blocked it on my DNS server so I don’t accidentally go there either

KaKi87, in Can lemmy be used as a blog (with comment section)?
@KaKi87@sh.itjust.works avatar

Hi,

I’m feeling the same and wondering the same, did you ended up trying this, and if yes, do you have some advice on how to manage this particular use case ?

Thanks

Wiggles, in Be honest, do you still use reddit?

Occasionally. From my desktop. Not really from my phone anymore. I like lemmy well enough but there still isn’t as much content especially for niche subjects.

@TheAndrewBrown@lemmy.world avatar

Personally, I wouldn’t want them spending precious development time on this when you could just block the community and set a reminder on your phone for whenever you want to unblock it.

I think better algorithms wouldn't be a waste of developer resources. At the end of the day, the post feed algorithm is the core product, IMO.

Figuring out how to lower the weights on highly active subs is a good idea. As is ranking smaller subs' content appropriately.

For all it's faults, Reddit's algorithm was pretty good. There was always a decent mix of small and large subs on my feed.

Kbin's post ranking overall seems better than Lemmy's and that was a major factor in me choosing it as my home base.

dingus,

I don’t want them blocked outright, though. I just want better feed algorithms. It shouldn’t just be whoever spams the most takes over my entire feed. The number of posts from any given community that show up in subscribed, local, all, etc. should be limited so that smaller communities aren’t pushed out of existence.

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@yiffit.net avatar

I just prefer sorting options that don’t weigh posts. Like New or New Comments. I don’t have nearly as many similar posts appearing on the front page sorting by New Comments, and only posts with high levels of discussion stay on the FP.

If you’re going to sort by things that count all metrics to determine what’s “popular,” it’s always going to be memes and low effort bullshit.
