Sort by "Most Viewed?"
Sort by "Most Viewed?"
Would it be possible to have that added as a method of sorting posts on Lemmy? Instead of including votes, or just the most recent comments, "Active" and "Hot" could also include simply what's being looked at even if nobody is actually interacting with it in any other way. Actually kinda baffled why this is already a thing on SM.
Also I wasn't sure where to really post this, which is why it's here.
lemmy does not track post views, especially not via federation.
you could try bringing it up at !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml but i wouldn't count on this becoming a feature.
technically, posts can be marked as viewed if this is not disabled by the user, which would be the closest thing possible, but there is also no time decay on that. this information is limited to users on the local instance, so this wouldn't be that representative unless used on one of the larger instances.
