    Ok. Duly noted. Again I was just testing something.
    You think 8k MAU is a chicken and an egg problem though? It seems like like there is no content so there are no users - I’m just trying to fix that is that ok if we bump lemmy userbase?

          I think that was content from last 2 days on reddit - is that too much? Also yes there is a cap automated postings in there.

            When the original content is from is less important than when it’s posted here. Lemmys sorting algorithm isn’t very smart. When all of the posts are made in a batch it shows them all together. I don’t want to see pages of 90% one community.

            Once a day the top post from reddit? Great, I’m cool with that. 30 random ass posts from 2 days worth of reddit all within 20 minutes? Annoying as shit, awful. Don’t do that.

                f I sub to something I want to see new content every time I refresh lemmy,

                That’s the problem, lemmy’s algorithms aren’t smart enough to do that. Posts made around the same time tend to show up around each other. Particularly with scaled sorting, hot is a little better, but shows older content. As long as the posts are spaced out per community I don’t think people will find it annoying. But like I said I had 1.5 pages full of just programmer humor posts. Back to back to back. And if I refreshed it didn’t change, because lemmys algorithms are static.

                Right now as I go to my default page 6/20 posts are orange cats. In a few hours it will be what other community a cluster of posts it decides to make.
