PSA: Sort by New in smaller communities to avoid only seeing the same old posts. (lemmy.world)

I've noticed that most communities mainly show day-old posts with default sorting. Sorting by New or Hot helps with seeing newer posts. Kinda obvious, but I sure didn't realize until trying it out 😅

Uncheck "Show read posts" in your settings, then once you up/downvote or actually go into a post, it will disappear for you.

I tried that, but that ended up hiding everything in my profile too. I was trying to find a post that I wanted to get back to, and had to disable that setting to see it.

Oh, yes, that part is really annoying, I experienced that too. This setting should only be in effect in the feed, not everywhere. I'll create an Issue later if I don't forget it, I cannot see anything similar.
