Just had a thought about feed sterilization (lemmy.world)

I began noticing on Reddit (official mobile app) that if I hadn’t viewed a community in a while, it would NEVER show up in my feed. I always assumed this was Reddit trying to play “Facebook” BS - safe to assume with Lemmy that won’t be the case?

The code is open source, so you can inspect it yourself.

I doubt there's much incentive for Devs to implement features that would make Lemmy more facebook-like. There's no profit motive for it, and there are lots of other features and bug fixes that deserve their attention.
