Agreed. These "trends" that last for a couple of days before switching to the next one are stupid. People just start spamming old shitty content only because everyone else is too. It definitely makes Lemmy more active but getting my feed filled with low effort shitposts is not the kind of activity I'm looking for. I've been here for a month and I've already blocked more users/communities than I ever did on reddit.

I've heard of one instance called beehaw that's seems to be more curated so to say. It may interest you.
