Maybe this is unpopular but I'm getting tired of opening lemmy and having to scroll past the same post that I have viewed already, half of the posts on the front page are 2 or 3 days old.
I sort by hot and have seen the same posts 3 days in a row. I've actually had to completely switch to new to see anything outside of the same posts I've seen for days.
Or better, Lemmy will let you choose the default, or remember your choices. Likewise, I typically browse all servers, annoying to have to switch from local to all each time.
It seems like you can change both of these in your profile settings (Settings -> Type & Sort type). It still displays "Local" on the landing page but it actually shows All content.
