It's not that bad. One of the major advantages of Lemmy being smaller than Reddit. Once you block the reddit repost bots (there are like 3 and my current instance is straight up not even federated with the instances they're on anyway) it's fairly useful to just see articles; helps avoid the trap of only reading comments about articles instead.
I just checked, and my first page right now is several self post questions, one vanilla porn post, an image about the Boost app, and eight news articles. I'd call that pretty standard.
In fact sorting by new gives me more news than sorting by top. Like 70% of top posts are stale memes.
I’ve gone with New too. It keeps things fresh and I’m not relying on the bandwagon of voting or popularity to sift content for me.
It’s tough on some instances though due to the fairly useless reddit repost bots… lemm.ee has a particularly difficult situation as for some reason, trying to view the profiles of the reddit repost bots doesn’t work when signed in, so I can’t block them. Just pages and pages of useless reddit posts.
I have an account on lemm.ee that I use occasionally. In my experience the instance's owner is extremely responsive. You should try making a post on the support community first, and then if that fails, messaging him directly.
Oddly, I just went there and it seems like they fixed it!
You sorting just your instance, subscribed? You can't be doing new and all /everthing?
Well, our local feed here in lemmy.world is a wilder ride than most…
No, I'm browsing all. I don't even have any subscriptions on this account.
