The hot algorithm was actually broken, but lemmy 0.18.0 came out today and instances are starting to update - once your instance updates, install jerboa 0.35 n you’ll notice the difference
I'd not encourage to get .35 version, I think .34 is more stable for now, it wasn't perfect, but at least it didn't give me crashes like .35 does.
I'm pretty sure the .35 crashes were because instances weren't updated to 0.18.0 yet, I haven't had any problems using it on lemmy.ca
I see, I hope that's the case then!
Somehow f-droid is saying that .33 is the latest version and it doesn't let me update. If I download an apk it also doesn't let me as it conflicts with another install...
F-droid is pretty slow in picking up versions, how f-droid works by default is that you register a source code repository with it and then f-droid goes ahead and checks the source code and builds and checks the application themselves to put in their repository. All this takes about 2-4 days usually.
However, for me at least, 0.34 is currently the latest one on the official f-droid repository, maybe there's some other issue with your fdroid.
But anyway, if you want faster updates, you have to use another app repository within fdroid instead of the official one, IzzyOnDroid's is a trusted one. It doesn't build the apps, but simply goes to the repos and looks for already built APKs and serves those, which is less secure (as it doesn't vet the built apps) and thus faster.
Right! That's totally it. I'm still moving between instances, so I got confused, but you're right, 0.18.0 is working much better. Should have not made the post tbh, I was browsing on lemmy.ml (which is using 0.18) on the web just a few hours ago and I didn't notice the lack of content, but I had Jerboa on lemmy.world. I should have just stopped and used my brain for a second before posting.
Thanks!
I do appreciate the post though because it actually answered my question. Not that I've been on my phone much today but I noticed this the other day.
There are about 35k active users on all instances combined (according to https://the-federation.info/platform/73, note that I mean "active" users, not total). That is a minuscule amount compared to even average-size subreddits. Give it time, and be part of the content-producers.
I have a few ideas on how to clog my bowels. I really can't wait to contribute!!!
do it for 4 days I dare you
I am producing content with this comment! Oh and links I've shared.
If you count kbin it probably takes us at least over 50k. Though there is a bug right now where all their users are showing as active.
I browse by all / new. There are not a million posts, but I find interesting content that way.
The new Top filters in 0.18 are great too. "Top Hour" and "Top Six Hours" show me fresh links pretty reliably. Which one I use depends on how often I've been procrastinating recently.
The algorythms are kinda faulty, but there's plenty of content around.
I'm having a lot of things to do on beehaw.org and kbin.social
Personally I wasn't a fan of the sorting algorithims. I like Kbin's sorting more.
I'm sure there's others who've been able to find what they want though, but the sorting was a big reason for me to try kbin out.
All.
Sort by top.
Maybe I’m being optimistic but I think full release of apps (which there are some great ones in beta), combined with the shutdown of Reddit apps will increase the user base quite a bit. I think 2-4x as many people as we have now would be a critical point where there’s lots of content and discussions.
I just browse Top Day and have jerboa hide read posts. Working pretty well for me now until Sync releases
On reddit, my go-to sort mid-day was top->last hour. So, get the posts made in the last hour and sort them by Score. I miss it a bit, but assume it'll show up at some point.
So are you only missing the 1h? On Kbin you can do 3h/6h/12h/24h.
On a lemmy instance i would understand the comment since there you can only filter it per day currently (but maybe this was changed in the new update rolling out currently?)
So yes on Lemmy, I the shortest window I've seen is 24 hrs atm.
I played around with kbin on desktop and found the following:
- https://kbin.social/top/3h
- https://kbin.social/hot/3h
- https://kbin.social/sub/hot/3h
- https://kbin.social/sub/top/3h
They were not super-apparent on my phone.
Are all these clients going to be compatible with Kbin, or am I going to have to get an account for the specific social network that say, Jerboa supports?
The only app that I've seen so far that claims it will (eventually) support Kbin is Artemis, which is not released at all yet.
Jerboa supports lemmy and I'm not sure if they plan to implement kbin support, but it would be nice
There are kbin apps on the way

Warning: You can submit issues, but between Lemmy and lemmy-ui, I probably won't have too much time to work on them. Learn jetpack compose like I did if you want to help make this app better.
