My mistake then. I have to give Voyager another try, I guess :)

Maybe I misremember but didn’t voyager have ads? That was a turn off for me.

Or maybe that was boost?

I would still argue that thunder is the best app for lemmy

From what I can tell, the larger instances have frontpages without much user duplication. They have a LOT more memes than I do tho :)

I’ll take a look at [email protected]!

The political posts thing is interesting. So far, mainly news posts with text descriptions remain on the front page (which I personally prefer over the memes, but that’s just my preference). I am having a hard time deciding if I actually find them interesting though… ^^ I think I actually prefer it over my reddit homepage, there tends to be much of the same, usually.

For comparison, see: https://imgur.com/a/xbzMXmQ

I made no changes to the lemmy codebase, its all done through an auto-moderating bot that auto-removes posts that don’t meet the standard :)

Do you plan to publish your algorithm/filter?

In an ideal world sure. But I’d have to think about that some more, because in principle I don’t want people to game it :)

I added the larger communities before starting to remove posts, so there may be historical posts still hanging around. Maybe everything from BuyFromEU was deleted?

You can see the kind of stuff that stays best via homepage ALL > Top last N hours
