I feel like most posts on Lemmy are irrelevant to me, and they don’t refresh much, is this how Lemmy is like or is this just because I’m a new user?

    Lemmy didn’t have really The Algorithm to feed your media consumption. You need to build your own diet by subscribing to communities of your choice. You can use this search engine to find ones that interest you. https://lemmyverse.net/

      I am subscribed to a good bunch of communities I’m interested in, but even then I don’t feel like the posts are that relevant or interesting

        Sort by Scaled. That fixed it a lot for me. Sorting by Hot or Active or whatever the default is tends to bury the smaller/nicher communities, causing the feed to just be a bunch of news articles

        What are your expectations for Lemmy? How would the posts be more relevant or interesting? What are they lacking in exactly?
