YSK: Sorting by 'Hot' instead of 'Active' will show more diverse content on Lemmy
I've seen a few mentions of people feeling like they're constantly seeing the same content when sorting by active, I've since moved to hot, and I'm having a much better time.
Yes, you can find those options under Sort Type in your profile settings if you're using the web version. I'm sure each of the apps has that option as well.
