Also is it just me or does clicking on the thumbnail do the same as clicking on the heading? Is this intended? I think it would be better UX if clicking the thumbnail would take you directly to the link/image.

Not everywhere in the world.

I was also really unhappy with it. Then I tried kbin.social. It's not a lemmy instance, but also uses the fediverse so you can still see and interact with posts from other lemmy instances.

Yeah Lemmy instances. I thought kbin is also a Lemmy instances. Thanks for clearing up my confusion.

I mainly tried lemmy.world, lemmy.ml, beehaw.org and a few others. I did try them with and without "all" and it was cumbersome regardless. Either I was served posts with zero or negative upvotes that to me do not classify as "hot" or my feed did not update at all.

What's weird to me is that kbin.social was the only one I tried that was not affect by any of this strangeness.

Try kbin.social. As far as I know they are the only server that has a Frontpage that updates regularly.

It's pretty simple. Most people won't do anything unless it directly impacts them.

This has been true time and time again throughout history as well. People only revolt or start an uprising when things get so bad that it directly influences them. Even then most won't do anything unless they aren't able to ignore it anymore.

Den Usern drohen is immer ein guter Schachzug. Hat man ja damals bei Digg gesehen.

Immer weiter so Steve, so schaffst du es Reddit den Bach runter gehen zu lassen!

Imho it's boring because "active" is the default and works differently from reddit. It shows you active posts, as in posts that have a lot of new comments. This leads to some posts being on the front page for days.

The filter "hot" is supposed to be like reddit, but is currently broken on a lot of instances.

For the best experience I strongly recommend kbin.social since they have a working "hot" as their default giving you the most reddit-like experience out of all the instances I've tried.
