Why is the front page just the same few posts for days?
submitted 5 years ago by Ground_Fawn from self.SaidIt
The posts on the site's front page seem to never change. The same ones have been there for days and it makes the site feel dead. Why is it so rare for a new post to show up?

Probably because there isn't a lot of activity ( commenting/upvoting) going on. I've been viewing New to find things to comment on and when/if I get replies I come back to see that no one else commented.

On the main page, people should check out the "new" tab at the top, which shows the newest posts on saidit. That way you can see every single post if you want, and it's a great way to see fresh content.
Then also in that same list of tabs you can check "comments" and it'll show the newest comments on the whole site!
These two ways make it a lot easier to find activity.
And like d3rr said the top stuff is way more upvoted than the rest because of the influx of new users, so it's hanging out for an extra-long time.

How about the mobile app? I'm actually using the "Front page" tab and seeing quite a lot of fresh content.

It usually changes more but those posts have 4x the votes of anything else. It will resolve itself soon I think.

One thing I liked on Reddit was that I had the option to make it where once I voted on something, it would no longer appear in my feed. Kept me from seeing things over and over.
Might be worth considering here too.

It's here, check out 'link options' in preferences

site is pretty dead but this is a good time for saidit to take over. Reddit is dying for reasons you may know about. voat doesn't want reddit users to go there because they know their servers are crap so they made it invite only plus you can only post 10 times per 24 hours there until you get 100 upvotes. Saidit could fill the message board void
