I've been exploring the fediverse and subbing and posting all over the damn place. Realizing lemmy can federate with kbin blew my mind. Not to mention the possibility of turning my old laptop into a personal server to host my own instance. Is this what it felt like to discover how the internet worked in the 90s?
Meh. According to the front page, @Communism is trending. Yet there are no posts and 2 subscribers.
I suppose that is one type of trend.
It's basically a simple cache right now. Newest = "trending". The feed trending algorithm can be improved in many ways.
It can be capitally improved by feeding you ads and astroturfed content too. But then ir'd just be Reddit or every other social.
I think new communities are extremely heavy weighted in the trending section. I've not looked at the algorithm for it, but the 2 communities I made were on there immediately after creating them.
What do you mean, that's overactive for a Lemmy community /s
