This is officially my new favourite cat pic of all time.

There are actually already a few sites to help people find new communities but probably the best one is lemmyverse.net/communities.

There is a current initiative to get new mods for communities that are being used, but have inactive mods. Whether that covers any of these and what exactly the criteria are for “inactive”, I do not know.

So basically, yes this has been discussed a lot and there are various options for fixing it floating around. A few weeks ago there were all kinds of urgent gamebreaking bugs in the software that needed patching up, but hopefully things like sort algorithm improvements will have their time to shine soon.

As far as what the conversation looks like, here’s a link to all the currently open Github issues searched for “sort”. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+sort Some of them will be more relevant and have more discussion than others, since people tend to make a lot of duplicates, but it should give you an idea of the current thinking.

Sorry not sorry!

The irrationally nostalgic part of me loves this idea.

The rest of me not so much 😅

I accidentally added one just after writing this post, but you’re still beating me by two.

Ding ding ding we have a new winner! 🏆

Too many interests most of which are quite small and niche is definitely a major problem in more than one area of my life lol, Lemmy is just the latest 😅

Gotta get those numbers up my friend :D
