I am trying both Mlem and Wefwef at the moment, and even though I select the “subscribed” options for my main feed, the posts I see are different. It seems like WefWef shows me top posts from the day before and Mlem is more current? But I still haven’t figured it out.

      Not singling you out, but speaking of bugs in the new stuff, be sure when you submit a post and it hangs a bit to not hit the button again before you check somehow if it went through. On mobile this may be a lot harder than on desktop, where you can just open the thread in a new tab and see if it took. Hopefully that process will be improved soon to not allow double entries and to give better feedback on if it went through. Even Reddit’s older system sucked at the feedback part with that 501 error or whatever.

        No. You are, and it’s well-taken! I kept getting a getting network error message and assumed it was not going through. I (thought I) verified that it didn’t go through. And attempted to submit again. Wondering if they got queued and then submitted when the issue resolved.

      Okay… now I feel silly. This was the issue. I just hadn’t thought of “Active” and “Hot” being different, but that was the issue.

    I’m using different apps, it’s probably your sort. I see the same posts in the same order browsing all/hot and all/active

      This is the reason….I didn’t know there was a difference between Active and Hot but there is. Still getting used to differences from Reddit! Thank you.

        Yeah it’s been weird. Hot on lemmy seems to weigh more heavily towards newer posts than we’re used to from reddit. I regularly see posts that are less than 5 mins old with like 1 or 2 upvotes, back to back with ones that are a few hours old with much more engagement.

        And then active seems to be a bit slower overall, with posts shifting gradually over the course of a few days. There’s several options I haven’t played with either, still figuring stuff out myself

    Implementation quirks.

    I find even across instances in the same app, the content can change.

    One of the growing pains, it will be solved with time.

    I’m guessing it’s due to which other instances they federate with and how recently they synced.
    Even more annoying is that one instance might show 4x as many comments on the same post as another instance.
