I haven't seen a thread on this in a while. I have been going with top day for a while, but it can be hit or miss. Other sorts don't seem to display as good in terms of balancing quality and quantity. What is your preferred sort for your main feed?
Edit: Realizing that the people who sort new commented before the hot/top/active people, haha
Default sort? I just set mine to 'New' to keep up with the one guy who posts a thousand news articles per minute. The rest of the users are either trolls or the braindead few who haven't realized they're the last ones left in this digital wasteland. It's like watching the end of the internet in slow motion.
