How can I make Lemmy show me good fresh content? (feddit.uk)

I'm subscribed to quite a few communities now but my subscribed feed is still pretty barren. Whether I sort by hot or active I'm seeing the same few posts a lot of the time, often with very few upvotes or comments. I also see months old posts popping up again and again. There is a post on one community with -39 score from 8 months ago that I see every time I open the app. And one from 3 years ago with one comment from months ago.

All feed isn't much better for me either.

Super important to sort by Top 6 Hours. If you do that you will see the currently discussed posts. My feed has quite a lot of content because of this.

And yeah, maybe version 0.18.3 fixed issues with Hot but top 6 hours seems great.

Feddit.nu upgraded to 0.18.3 and I can confirm Hot seems to be working now.

Top 6 Hours and New Comments are still both useful sorts, though.
