I’m not a fan of outright blocking certain communities and would rather have a kind of “relevancy-factor” or “weight” with which i could tune the frequency of seeing posts from certain communities. A factor of 0 would be the same as blocking a community. 1 would be normal.

I am not familiar with the exact method with which posts are displayed in “Everything” or the ordering thereof. But I’m sure it’s taking the up votes into account. A relevancy factor of 0.5 would treat a post with 1000 up votes as if it had 500 and there for position it lower.

This way highly up voted posts from certain communities would be able to appear.

    Hm right. Ok I understand. So that wouldn’t work like i thought it would. It could sort clientside, but that would have kind of “quantization errors” regarding pages. hm
