Been loving the fed, but the past few days i’m wondering if my setup is wrong on this site?

Unspecified and English are my language settings in the account config.

I tend to go with Hot and check Top Day on All. I also am a heavy hider - once I open an image, check comments that post is gone [which I prefer, I don’t ever dip back, unless I get a reply]

I have the big meme communities blocked so that’s a massive chunk of content I’m missing out on, not that i’m complaining; it was too dominant.

Despite my local instance only being defedded with one community, I feel like i’m really not getting All on my…All.

Is it better to subscribe to stuff and set Subscribed to my default feed instead?

Thanks, hopefully i’ve not buggered something up

Well if this is what you want then you really need to choose a proper instance that suits your needs.

  1. Your instance has to have no blocked instances
  2. It needs to be a big instance so that people are searching up more things and making it more aware of other communities

You can bypass the need for #2. See my other, longer post in this thread. You can find any community you want and make your instance aware of it (as long as the host instance is not defederated, I presume). No need to depend on others searching.
