I’ve tried browsing with the app but the content I’m being fed seems to have different priorities to rif. The niche stuff that I really want to read appears to be being buried.
It’s made it so much easier to just not give them any content myself as I decided to stop posting there.
I’m really looking forward to seeing where lemmy goes as it’s attracting the kind of people I enjoy associating with. Reddit is headed in the opposite direction IMO.
I feel like I was noticing this on the main site as well. I’d be surprised if they hadn’t been changing the algorithms to spoon feed us specific content, but there’s also a very high likelihood that the overall feel of the content has changed after swaths of people migrated out, and then I’m sure I have a bias against Reddit now as well :P
