This is just me, but I just sort by "new" and make a particular effort to unsubscribe from stuff that's cluttering the feed, and that seems to give me a pretty good mix of content.

I am on a small instance, so if i am not subbed, they will never make it to "ALL".
I am still interested in the others that i am subbed to, but i want the very small ones to float to the top easier.
I guess by NEW will help, but they will get flooded out by the larger comms that have more posts. catch-22
Hm, you might have to take specific steps to get subscribed to stuff you want to see. Personally I find browsing 'ALL' to be a pretty unproductive experience... what I might do instead is just navigate to a couple of the likely-seeming instances (roughly in order of "big -> good": lemmy.world, lemmy.ml, sh.itjust.works, kbin.social, sopuli.xyz, lemmy.blahaj.zone, mander.xyz) (also beehaw), pop up their big community lists, and do some copy-pasting into your own instance's search bar so you can subscribe to a bunch of the stuff from everywhere that you want to see. I've done that one time from a smaller instance and it seemed like worked out pretty well for me (in terms of the time investment being worth it for setting up a feed that I wanted to see.)
Yeah, cheers. More or less what I do. I am chasing some algorithm though,.
Ah yah makes sense 👍🏻
