I think one of the main flaws of Reddit is that upvotes that happen on a user's front page and upvotes that come from 'within' the subreddit are treated equal (at least as far as I know).

It degrades the "does this post fit the subreddit's theme/topic?"-signal and makes the average user work against the moderation team rather than supporting them.

This was exacerbated when they started showing posts from subreddits that the user is not even subscribed to on the front page rather than just ranking posts of subscribed subreddits.

I've never heard this raised before but its an interesting idea. Lemmy/Piefed are pretty open to features and changes. At the moment this wouldnt be a good idea because a lot of communities are to small to be browsing specifically but as the platform grows I can see this being a really good change to the algorithm .
