I realize that Mastodon is specifically intended not to have any sort of algorithm, and I understand and appreciate that, but it’s not what I want, personally. I want to have the posts in my feed sorted by the ones with the most “engagement” as those are likely the most interesting ones.
I’m not looking for groups, I’m looking for individuals.
If Lemmy allows you to follow users and their posts show up in your subscribed feed then it sounds like that would be what you want?

If you click the Subscribe button on that GitHub issue then you’ll get email updates about its progress
That’s not at all what I want. I feel like that much should be obvious at this point. Lemmy is a completely different type of social platform than Mastodon and other platforms like it. They do not work the same way.
