I’m noticing an issue where the posts on the front page have been the same for a few days now, excluding the pinned Stubsack post. The default “Active” sorting mode seemingly fails to update its ranking of the posts. I see new posts when switching to “New” mode, but “Active” and “Hot” just show stuff from 5 or 6 days ago.
The comment ordering seems similarly static, and I feel like the default “Hot” algorithm isn’t prioritizing new comments like it used to, but it’s harder to tell if it’s bugged or not since older comments tend to have more upvotes, as do the higher up sorted comments.
The same thing happens on mobile and desktop. Is this just my end or are others noticing the same?
You must log in or register to comment.
Yes, something changed. I thought all of awful.systems was on a collective hangover after the election before I changed to sorting by New.
to be fair, that’s probably true too
I’m seeing not exactly this but a related weird only on my mobile client: can’t find the most recent posts I’ve made from profile view
haven’t tried to dig into it yet to see where the problem may lie
i would blame communism
Same, apart from the stubsack all top posts are 5-6 days old. Wish the choice of sorting algo was persistent.
You should have an option to change the default algo in your user settings.
found it! thanks!
