The default public feed is Popular, not the firehose: what people reacted to, in your language, with the machine posts gone.

A brand-new post has no reactions yet (of 73 fresh English posts on the
four relays, one had two), so Popular starts from the other end: the latest
reactions, reposts and zaps, counted per post by distinct people, then the
posts two or more people touched. Older pages walk the reactions back in
time; new ones arrive by a two-minute poll. At the door, JSON and other
machine output are dropped, and so is anything not in the reader's language
(script first, then a vote of function words among the Latin-script
languages the app speaks; unknown passes). The raw firehose stays at
/feed/all. A language selector sits under every feed, and changing it
rebuilds the curated ones.

A tall video scrolled past used to let go of its media at once and collapse,
shifting the page under a thumb; it now waits a moment and holds its height
until the clip is back. A tap on a full-screen picture closes it.
