Title.
A small drunk goblin in every server throws a dart at a handwritten piece of paper with every post ever
I think your prompt was wrong there mate. He said small not swol.
Looks more like an orc, maybe it’s the goblins boss
Can I buy him a beer or something?
I hear he likes beans
This is my favorite theory so far.
I KNEW it!
https://join-lemmy.org/docs/contributors/07-ranking-algo.html is everything you need
Just curious, is this something that admins of individual instances could adjust for themselves? I could see some specialized instances being able to make use of a customized sorting algorithm for this.
If this is something that admins can adjust, does that impact anything with that content shared to or accessed from any federated instances?
I don’t think any of the algorithm is expose to other instances so that wouldn’t impact the communication between instances. At the end of the day this is open source so admins can freely build a forked version of Lemmy with a slightly different algorithm.
When you post, the Lemmy app secretly takes a photo of your face. This is then sent to a 3rd party AI application that looks at your facial features and ranks you on how hot you are. This is then sent back to the Lemmy server. This hotness score is then weighted by the users location that is viewing the feed (ie, an LA 7 might be a 9 in Chicago, or a 10 in alamaba if they are genetically related to you)
I too would like to know this and am too lazy to look at the source code. Maybe tomorrow.
“Maybe tomorrow” is about one fifth of the human condition
Only one fifth? Those are rookie numbers.
Have to leave 79% for “eh”

Whatever is being upvoted the most recently.
the hot feed is the same as reddits rising feed. its not a hot feed, its just random posts that have gotten an above average number of upvotes in the last hour. this site is next to impossible to use between the lack of a hot page and all of the niche communities not being populated thus making the front page and your subfeed the same 5 communities, and they’re all memes.
Well, if it was a better fit, there’s always Return to Reddit.
It would be kind of cool to be able to define yourself the function that decides this for your account.
Divining rods.
Perhaps, it’s purpose is to help make old cold posts warmer by bringing them to the top.
Is that like a shit flambe?
