    I’m actually surprised to see comments saying this is unpopular. I actually thought it sounded refreshing.

    When I switched from Reddit to Lemmy, I stopped sorting everything by Top. I got tired of seeing the highest voted posts and comments in my feed and wanted to see a variety of things instead.

    Now, the top of my feed is not necessarily the highest voted or most popular opinion, and I can enjoy a variety of comments under posts without just reading what the community most agrees with at the top of a feed.

    Finding a different and unique way to sort posts and comments would be interesting, in my opinion. For instance, if I want to see funny or sarcastic remarks instead of serious ones, I could just sort by laugh reacts.

    But… I understand how much work it would be to change an entire community over to that standard, and I realize it’s not really reasonable. So I get the unpopular opinion. I just think it would be fun to see.
