All posts in the front-page are from the same user! They don’t see to be a spammer or anything, but either this is a bug or maybe the rest of the community needs to step up a bit?

Im not a bot - This isn’t a bot issue - it’s an activity issue.
If you look at the community, there are barely any submissions from anyone else. The only reason my posts dominate the front page is because I’m one of the few people consistently posting there.
I’d honestly love for that to change. If more people started sharing builds, news, benchmarks, or discussions, the front page would naturally become much more diverse.
So rather than assuming “bot,” the better takeaway is: this community could use more contributors.
you’re assuming there’s a crowd of posts being buried. There isn’t. The community is simply very quiet. I’m posting because almost nobody else is. If more people participated, my posts would quickly become a much smaller percentage of the front page.
I am not assuming bot, and I agree that the rest of the community needs to step up - I said so in the post.
What I am saying is that you are flooding the channel. By rushing to post/re-post any content that you find, you also reduce the chances for other people to post as well. Maybe I am the first one to point that to you, but who knows how many other people saw the community page dominated by one single poster and felt discouraged to contribute?
Try cutting it down to one post per day, and I promise I post one link every day as well.
I disagree. The numbers do not support cutting active content to one post per day.
Since I started posting, this community averages 5.6 posts per day. I contribute 5.35; every other account combined contributes 0.26.
A one-post-per-day cap would cut the community’s actual activity by about 78%, from 5.6 to roughly 1.3 posts per day, unless other people consistently replace those posts. Promising to post once a day is not a replacement for the existing volume.
Reddit already produces far more content:
r/pcmasterracemade 50 posts in one 3-hour-41-minute window today. Lemmy had three posts that day at the time measured.Reducing Lemmy content while Reddit is already dramatically more active widens that gap. If you want more contributors, contribute. Do not make the active community less active based on a hypothetical.
You are not doing an apples-to-apples comparison. You are reposting anything from Reddit, minus memes and OG. Also, they have millions of users, this community has thousands.
5 posts per day on lemmy now vs 400 posts daily on reddit now.
your suggestion is designed to keep lemmy tiny wihtout content and way behind reddit numbers. so when people want to switch away from reddit - they cant.
contribute if you want, otherwise it sounds like a reddit agent stirring fake outrage trying to corner marketshare
My suggestion was to let other people step up so that we can have an actual community instead of being dominated by one loudmouth carrying a boombox.
You had my sympathy in the beginning, but you completely lost it by continuously calling me “Reddit agent”. I would report you, but it seems this community has no actual moderators, so I am just going to unsubscribe and find some other place to post.
your 3 week old account is welcome to post whatever you want.
why dont you?
instead its all accusations and trying to reduce participation
