I realize that Mastodon is specifically intended not to have any sort of algorithm, and I understand and appreciate that, but it’s not what I want, personally. I want to have the posts in my feed sorted by the ones with the most “engagement” as those are likely the most interesting ones.

    Lemmy has Hot, Active, and Top sort modes, all of which are different indicators of engagement.

          That’s not at all what I want. I feel like that much should be obvious at this point. Lemmy is a completely different type of social platform than Mastodon and other platforms like it. They do not work the same way.
