As I see it now, the lemmy spirits have seen fit to have some sort of geometric score progression

I agree with your agreement therefore I am ENTITLED to upvotes

1. Browse new
2. First comment
3. Collect massive Internet points
4. ???
5. LEMMY

I never really did this on the bad place but if you browse new and fire off something snarky or heartfelt first it often becomes the top comment in my experience

Honest question, why isn’t your clubhouse over at lemmygrad enough?

1. They basically say they are, and also run explicitly tankie instance lemmygrad.ml
2. Look at the modlog for lemmy.ml. Among other things, anytime someone has an opinion about China who isn’t Chinese it’s “Orientalism”

I wasn’t sure how to respond to this at the time.

I’m coming back to report that I just saw this.

I was scrolling All + Hot using Connect on Android and saw this post: https://lemmy.ml/post/57957

Judging by the influx of new comments, I wasn’t the only one.

Lemmy’s default sort is “Active” - which I believe is “most recent comment activity”

The classic reddit experience is most like the “Hot” sort option.

Lemmy’s other weird default is the “feed” which can be all, local, and following. Lemmy defaults to “local”, which is probably not what you want (chronological feed of posts on your home server)

Also highly recommend “blocking” communities if you don’t want to see their content. (Mostly important if you browse the “All” or “local” feeds)

Hexagons are the bestagons and I love this
