All - New Comments

I switch it around every once in a while when I've seen too many similar posts.

I sort by new, subscribed by default, for my mindless scrolling when I open randomly throughout the day. Then in the evenings I saw switch to top day, all for finding interesting convos and new communities.

Subscribed • Hot

'Scaled' sounds interesting, though I don't currently see it on lemmy.world web interface.

New local. Once that is exhausted new all.

Subscribed|New pretty much all the time.

I'll do my All New duty every so often to upvote potentially interesting stuff. There's a lot of crap to wade through, so I hope it helps.

Subscribed Scaled

I'm subscribed to a LOT of different communities so I usually don't run out of content

Active

Subscribed - New comments

Once that is done I go to All - Top of the day or 12 hours

@THE_MASTERMIND I start with Moderated New. Then Settings Reports.

Then I typically sort Subscribed Hot, Subscribed New, then All Hot.

If I'm trying to find more things to sub to I will look at All New.

Lemmy has gotten much slower, so I can get through all the new posts in the morning in 30m or so.

All, new messages, hot, they kinda all meld together when there isn't that much activity.

Top 6 hours for a while since I joined, but activity increased a lot over the past few months that Hot is pretty good now.

Top day also, usually, except Active in channels where I don't look that often.

I'm a mod so it's hard to not sort by new.

Another Subscribed + New here

It depends on how long I expect to browse and how long since last time. If I've got a lot of time, I'll just do New. I've blocked a lot of communities that I have zero interest in, which includes some of the most prolific, so New isn't as terrible for me. Probably takes some 90 minutes of I haven't checked for 12 hours.

If I just want to catch the big stuff and don't have a lot of time, I'll usually do Top for however many hours since I last looked. Occasionally I'll do active to see what people are talking about.

Constantly alternating.

I browse lemmy all day pretty much when I am free so I always sort by hot, at night I sort by top all day, there are still plenty of posts I haven’t seen, probably because during the day I spend time on individual communities like ask lemmy rather than all

Scaled for subscribed and local. Top day for all.

Subscribed new and all scaled

On kbin, mostly all/hot/∞ (the default), otherwise new or subscribed (also /hot/∞ by default).
