New posts flood page when "Top Day - All" selected (lemmy.ca)

This is turning into a deal breaker for me. It doesn't matter what instance I'm on, or what I have selected from the dropdown (or browser I'm using), but "new" posts are constantly flooding the feed list.

First, new posts shouldn't even show if I specifically select a different view. Second, they flood things so fast I can't even click on the things I'm interested in. If I look away from the page for 30 seconds it's just junk.

I've had two other people tell me they are seeing the same thing. Tested on MacOS and Windows. Chrome/Brave/Firefox/Safari.

Anyone have a fix?

I don't know if this is a feature but could this be implemented temporarily?

trusted high volume external instances like beehaw or lemmy.ml or lemmy.world updates at say 2 mins. (I estimated by my reading speed where it took about 2 mins to read through and tab out for one page worth of posts)
all the other instances only accept update every 10~30mins depending if they have bot contents.

I think locally we are fine, but we do need to go to "All" to see something interesting so we can start tuning our subs.

i don't believe there's a way to do that, currently. will have another scan through the configs/docs and see if there's anything that may help.
