I love it as well. It’s great to see the insanity before I switch to my subscribed feed lol. People complaining just need to learn how to manage their feed and enjoy the beans.
I think this is similar to how reddit sorted before r/The_Donald memed its frontpage. It’ll probably settle down as people are still figuring things out but for now, I just temporarily block !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world and !196@lemmy.blahaj.zone so I can view other posts.
I think it’s worth mentioning for folks new here that there is no “algorithm” as people typically think of with sites like Facebook and Twitter. There are no levers or dials being adjusted behind the scenes, just upvote counts and comments pushing content to the top.
Is it that it’s not very good, or actually working as an indicator of what’s truly popular and currently generating engagement, and the people just love shitposts? 🤔
The Lemmy front page algorithm still isn’t very good. Which results in a lot of shit post quality posts jumping to the top of the “hot” sorting.
That’s my favorite part of this site. Every time I open it I’m flooded by the shitwitching hour.

When life gives you beans, you make toots.
