I’ve noticed that the “All” feed on Lemmy is pretty much the same across all instances, showing posts from every instance regardless of the specific focus or community vibe of the instance you’re on. This seems like a missed opportunity to make the experience more tailored and engaging for each instance’s unique audience.

For example, if there were an instance dedicated to literature lovers, wouldn’t it make sense for the “All” feed on that instance to prioritize content that’s more relevant to people who enjoy books, poetry, and writing? Instead of being a global feed that shows everything from memes to tech news, it could reflect the interests and values of the instance’s community.

I feel like making the “All” feed more tailored to each instance would not only improve user experience but also strengthen the sense of community within each instance. What do you think? Would love to hear everyone’s thoughts!

    to me this feels more like a sort option than entire feed, since it’ll be the same content as the all feed. like the idea though

      Voyager has a sort option in all that is called “scaled”, which I think does what the op wants?

        Scaled is different, as I understand it it’s a re-weighing of votes proportional to the size of a community to help promote smaller communities.

        no i think op is asking for a voting sort that’s counting only votes from your own instance
