Hi,

Surprised to see a decent number of subscribers here already! I'd like to move the community to sh.itjust.works because that's my main instance and I don't really use this instance anymore.

Thank you and I look forward to seeing some submissions!

I've been noticing myself that sorting by active or hot just gives me days old posts, so I've been sorting by new but it's not a great experience. this should be a pretty good middle ground.

Not sure what's happening with the ranking algorithm, but it seems like the default main page is still displaying the same set of popular posts from a few days ago.

But if you switch to sorting by "Top Day," it'll show fresh popular posts from the past day.

It took me probably less than a month to completely stop checking Digg altogether. Reddit's decidedly less slick interface had me confused and the content wasn't as easy to digest as with Digg, but it didn't take long to completely abandon it. That was like ten years ago.

I guess a small point I'm trying to make is that you shouldn't feel "shame" for checking reddit. You'll adjust and learn to love whichever alternative you choose
