Some instances and groups are very chatty (*gestures to /lemmyshitposts), so much so that they dominate the All page.
I knew that there would be a point that browsing /all would no longer be a pleasant or feasible experience, but I quite liked having a pulse on what everyone in the #threadiverse (that kbin.social federates to, anyway) are thinking. But right now it seems @memes is dominating everything.
I don’t want to fully block them from showing up in my feed, but i don’t want to let them full send either. Would it be feasible to add a feature in future releases to be able to adjust the algorhythm on the user-side that would allow for mutes, or deranking it in your feed, instead of outright blocking it?

You may also want to consider requesting this as a feature for https://kbin.social/m/ArtemisApp
https://kbin.social/u/hariette is implementing a feature where your subs home page can be “sprinkled” with posts from communities you don’t already follow. See:
https://kbin.social/m/ArtemisApp/t/173125/Artemis-is-experimenting-with-a-Discovery-Mode-for-your-feed
What you’re asking for is a variation of that.
Going to see if I can spin out a community dampener based on the filter feature Artemis has already. Cause I’m so finding myself a bit tired of meme dominating so much heh.
Agreed, custom aggregators for kbin and the fedverse in general, will become a thing.
I can see a view that combines the hot posts from each of my subbed communities, with the top 1 or two posts from each featuring, filtering over a time constraint or some other ranking system.
A client side implementation would be possible, but expensive in api calls. Server side should be easier. Maybe even defining a query language of sorts that can be user customised, if we wanted to be really fancy.
Some form of weighted rank, combining activity and interaction. I am subbed to some slow communities that are just starting. Maybe having a post or two in 24 hours where I would want those posts to rank highest. Subbed fast paced communities would then rank lower if we factor frequency and interaction on a per community basis.

Yes, Hariette has been super responsive to the community. They’re a fan of Apollo and they’re trying to bring that same community interaction between users and their development of the app. Looking forward to it.
