I subscribe to some, low volume, Lemmy communities (i.e. FreeBSD, Postgersql) and sometimes the posts won’t show on the first, or even second, page if I sort by day.
Is there a way to see just something like
subscribed community | posts (today|week)
So I can keep an eye on those low traffic groups
I’m not quite following.
If you go to the community and sort by new you’ll see new posts? That seems to be what you’re asking.
Also see the “scaled” option for your subscribed feed. This makes low activity communities show up higher in the list to try to stop them being drowned out by high-activity communities.
If I went to each individual community this would not be an issue, but that is far less friendly…
This is what I have been doing: I go to the instance I use, discuss.online, and sort by day. That shows me threads with most votes for the day (or however many hours I chose) the issue is that on a busy day, or as the number of subscriptions grow, less active groups get pushed further down in the pages.
Oh so when you said:
You weren’t asking for a way to see posts for a particular subscribed community, you wanted a list of communities with the number of new posts in each?
I’m not aware of a way to do that, no. But I wonder if the communities list page might help you find them? If you go to the communities page and sort by Scaled, like this:
https://discuss.online/communities?listingType=Local&sort=Scaled&page=1
Then small communities with recent activity should show at the top?
Yes, Scaled seems to be what I need.
