Hi! I’m British, I like music (grime, garage, hip-hop, R&B, and more!). I like art, culture, history, politics, & doomscrolling memes.

Also a touch of programming :)

  • One and the same - I was saying that I wasn’t suggesting what you thought I was suggesting, I was definitely talking about subscriptions. To clarify my question,

    reddit.com home page generates posts from your subscriptions (the subreddits you’ve subscribed to).

    It randomly selects 50 (or 100 if you pay) of your subscriptions and then populates the feed.

    Hence the problem: if you subscribe to inactive subreddits, some of the 50 reddit selects are effectively duds; they’re not doing anything and are taking up spots that other active subreddits could have. Your home feed is therefore de-facto hindered if you subscribe to inactive subreddits.

    I was wondering if this is also the case on Lemmy.
