Maybe this is unpopular but I’m getting tired of opening lemmy and having to scroll past the same post that I have viewed already, half of the posts on the front page are 2 or 3 days old.

I personally view this as a good thing for me (if unintended) - I’ve realised that I spent waaaay too much time on reddit, so I’m trying to cut down on my use of the platform.
I like lemmy, but I don’t want to spend all my time here either. The relatively low volume here makes me realise I should be doing other things.
That said, you can always join more communities - or better yet, contribute to them! Start your own posts!
I do but even on my subscribed front page all the posts are mostly ones I’ve already seen. It would be kind of cool if we could customize our own front page to control the age of posts that show up I feel
I’ll also add that not everyone feels that way and wats to give up their addiction and just want to see fresh content each day.
Other than playing with your default sort order, there’s also a setting to hide posts you’ve already read. It’s in your profile settings somewhere. I tried it and just found it confusing as heck but you might find it useful!
