I usually change to new because

  • I usually get the same post over and over for a long time in my feed
  • not from the USA and I'm sick of the Trump/Harris drama

I blocked all US news stuff to clear my feed, there are a lot of politics related posts here.

Some Lemmy clients offer keyword filtering if you really want to get aggressive about filtering out US election stuff.

I want to control the percentage of stuff each sub shows me. I want to subscribe to news and world news and politics, but then 100% of my feed is politics, despite the fact that 99% of my subscriptions are NOT politically based.

That’s mainly an issue of scale. The niche communities don’t have as much activity day to day so you see that stuff less

You can set it to not show posts you have already seen.

I'm still waiting for the Harris trump sex tape. The one where Harris has a 12 inch black strapon, and trump cries out in pain.

Then nobody will want for anybody, and I csn nominate myself in the running, vote for myself, and win by 1 vote.
