I only see a handful of communities posts, but miss a lot from smaller communities that aren’t as active but do get daily posts. Reddit blended in smaller communities really well and it’s something I’m struggling with here.

    I’d have to imagine that this is something that could be implemented per-instance, as well. For example, some instances could work toward a more aggressive recommendation algorithm, while others can aim for a more neutral feed. I can see the appeal to both versions, and honestly would probably keep an active account on both of those such instances, myself.

      That would have to be done in the BE, so even if it custom implemented, you’d have to reimplement it after every update. That is a PITA to maintain trust me. Why do you think so many companies contribute to Linux code, cuz it’s a PITA to maintain your custom patches to the code, you maintain a very small subset of those and let the rest be maintained by everyone else.
