https://lemmy.ml OR https://lemmy.world and https://kbin.social and are quite nice. Been posting there myself and it is great.

Lemmy is having some stability issues across its instances because of this growth curve: https://lemm.ee/pictrs/image/693866c7-8f65-4046-8781-58aee70...

I'm trying really hard to like Lemmy, but whenever I'm reading through posts on "active", "hot", etc. it will initially load with the correct content. But then, I get about 10 seconds before the entire list frantically reflows and fills with brand new posts from all over the place. Extraordinarily annoying. I get that creating a new post is itself "activity" which is probably why it does that, I don't think posts of that nature meet the description of "hot".

Maybe I just need to be going by Top->Day

This is a bug, and should be fixed in the next version. It happens in Top Day too sometimes.

A simple trick is to browse page 0 instead of page 1, by editing the URL.

Funny enough, I just tried editing the url and the first post on the resultant page was https://lemmy.world/post/433283 (a post in the Fediverse community asking why they keep seeing new posts show up in all sorting types)

I will say that doing so on the "new comments" sorting type did still yield a good number of no-comment posts.
