Yes, so I want to browse all but actually control the content, block instances, block keywords, etc… currently using Jerboa, but not married to it.

    Interesting that everyone here wants to operate their feed on a blacklist basis. Personally I’d love the opposite, to be able to subscribe to instances or specific communities and only get content from those. The main reason I used Reddit over anything else is because it only showed you posts from subs you subscribed to.

      You can set your feed to only show subscribed communities in your account settings.

        yeah, this is a thing already, that’s why nobody is asking for it

        Weird, it doesn’t work for me for some reason, I have to manually go into the “subscribed” tab each time. Also my point about not being able to subscribe to entire instances still stands. For instance(heh) bookwormstory.social is an instance dedicated to discussing a specific book series and currently has like 5 communities, and I’d have no way of knowing when they started a new community unless I manually checked.

          Hopefully you’ll get things sorted with getting subscribed as default view. I agree that it would be useful to be able to subscribe to a whole instance, but I think there are quite some technical hurdles to get there.

          I guess you could just create another account in that instance, though I agree it’s not really optimal…

            On Kbin: Settings, under first section Appearance, select Homepage, select Subscribed, done, you see subscriptions first.

            On Lemmy: Settings, near the bottom above the checklist, select Sort type (default Active), select Subscribed.
