I’m struggling to figure out where to find all the posts. I’m subscribing to communities and stuff but the same old posts keep appearing on the feed for 24hrs+. I’m flicking around with filters and manually exploring a lot and find things. It feels like I’m doing something wrong. Like there’s two new posts an hour in total.
I’m probably doing it all wrong. I don’t even really know what the point of subscribing is since I need to go into communities to see things, otherwise nothing shows up on the feed.
I’m bouncing between 4 apps, though, so kind of hamstring myself with familiarity.
Using the active filter seems to be the worst for that. I find hot gets me the best stuff and then new if you’re desperate. Top for the day is always good too.
Also change what setting the instance is on all is like old reddit all shows everything from every instance that is federated. Local is everything from the home instance like a watered down all and subscribed shows you only stuff from communities you add. These options have been available on all of the instances I’ve used so far.
Two buttons and the one is just like reddit but active is trash.
If you subscribe to some communities, you WILL have an option to see posts only from those communities, you shouldn’t have to go into a community unless you only want to see posts from that particular one. Also, I’m new but the default sort is usually “active”, which I assume means posts which have a lot of activity, such as comments. Try setting it to hot or something else to check whether you get a better variety of posts.

I find sorting ‘All’ by new has been helpful. I’m new here too.
I like to sort by All/hot and All/new.

Be sure to set your filter to “subscribed” or “all” instead of “local”, and give it a few seconds to load content from other instances.
