Real “those who know” vs “those who don’t know” energy

Thanks! That clears up a lot. Appreciate the paraphrasing too.

You’re making assumptions about how they work based on your intuition

Small difference: I made the assumption that the simplified version was exactly how it works, as in, taking the comment at face value.

It’s starting to make sense, thanks. I’ll try to keep scaled to my subscriptions, although I like “All” for the variety.

But 0 upvotes divided by any age is still 0. So Hot = 0, and Scaled would then be 0 divided by community size, and therefore also still 0.

On hot, I guess you managed to open it with the exact same second?

It was in response to “Scaled is like Hot”, so I wasn’t looking at the Hot page at that moment, but I tried to convey how it doesn’t make sense that a post with 0 upvotes get to the top of Scaled

But these are 3 posts with 0 upvotes that recently have been posted, how is that “Hot”, let alone at the top of “Hot”?

He addresses this by saying a laptop doesn’t allow you to replace components, doesn’t have mechanical keyboard and there’s no ultra wide support.

The funny thing is, this device he’s using doesn’t allow you to replace components either. And there are 21:9 laptops and mechanical keyboards available.

Seemed like he’s trying to reverse-engineer his way into justifying a use case for it, but just failed.

The two apps I have (Sync and Thunder) already do this when I hit search when on a community, so I guess it’s a matter of time.

Can’t do that at work here. Also, I realize 99% of it is AI generated, so I’m not really interested

Thanks for your service, this makes this website a better place 🫡

Do yourself a favor and starting blocking users (bots) and communities you will never be interested in. After a while, your feed starts getting a lot cleaner and more interesting.

The internet is too noisy to read everything, so tailor the content to stuff you will engage with for a happier experience!

edit: oh you said “not logged in”, which might mean that you already blocked the bot on your account. Still, the advice stands for anyone reading along

Something else? What’s that? :D

I had a feeling it was something like that, this makes sense, thanks. Would you recommend a different sorting method?

It’s too mysterious, I can’t handle it

Yeah, like certain communities have more eyes on them (so more upvotes) and they automatically dominate the feed, even with a flurry of fresh posts.

Imo active is boring, you get threads of 2-3 days ago where people are posting comments in. I like things to be actual

Here’s a redditor that describes it quite well:

Me. I have this. Happens several times a night. Sounds like a door slamming or a gunshot. The weirdest part is you also get the feeling that there was an impact, like that feeling when someone stomps near you. So it’s not just auditory it’s almost physical. It’s a very strange thing and hard to describe because you’re always 3/4 of the way asleep when it happens. I’ve had it my whole life and always found it curious but have never questioned it out loud. I thought everyone had this until I saw “exploding head syndrome” on the internet. Asked my parents and siblings, no, none of them have this and what the fuck am I talking about? I’m in my goddamned 40s and thought this was normal.

I can’t really speak for you of course, but I can add that I thought it was the same for me. Until it turned out I was the only one who was hearing these noises.
