  • A new scaled sort option has been added. This sort is identical to the Hot sort, but also takes into account the number of each community’s active monthly users, and so helps to boost posts from less active communities to the top.

    This is such a vital change and should be the default. Lemmy is currently effectively suffocating and killing its small communities and stunting its own growth due to its complete inability to surface their content. No scaled sorting, no “community bundling” - this is an important step in the right direction but there’s likely a lot more work needed to solve this problem.
