I should check, but if i remeber correctly, i had some subreddits that i read on newsboat using some kind of option in the RSS link in order to get the top. (something like ?top=24hrs
or like that)

Thanks for replying to my post.
For Mastodon: this isn’t the same as you are saying with the user-follow. In your case, each users follows the users that they want to see, and they can partecipate in the comments of that post, but they will see ALL of the posts of that user in their timeline/feed. Here, the community choose what users/hashtags/instances to follow, the best posts get selected and they get posted, without being spammy. You don’t have to see everything, but only the one that both were highly-ranked on Mastodon and they were upvoted on Lemmy. At the same time, you can’t control exactly what sources are selected, but you can also interact with the community in order to drive the moderators to change the sources list, or you could just change/make a new community based on Relly. They are two different approches, that could live in symbiosis (ex. You select your own Mastodon users to follow, and the only Relly’s Mastodon posts that appear are the one that you didn’t already saw in your personal timeline [this would require collaboration with the Lemmy Server Development Team])
Some other additions:
Hope this is useful!
Yes, and the fact that it doesn’t post any link that was already posted in the last 48 hours avoid spamming.
I think that subreddits could be usable using the RSS feed system, as Reddit API are expensive and if we set up a RSS feed containing the top of 24 hours, we can extract links from there.
I had to enter reddit (eeewww…) but I found it: https://www.reddit.com/r/rss/comments/e3mx1j/how_to_get_rss_feed_of_a_subreddit_with_top_posts/ Check the first comment.
