    Setting up my own instance ended up being pretty good for me since it meant I had to manually subscribe to every community I want. The quality of “All” posts depends heavily on the instance you’re on.

        If you’re on an instance with only 1 user, they’re the same thing. But yes, Lemmy’s a lot better if you just subscribe to what you want.

          What? No, use “All” to browse through federated instances and then subscribe to any interesting communities across the whole Fediverse. Then stick to the “subscribed” feed and only occasionally recheck “All” if you’re bored and looking for new communities with none in particular; otherwise, run searches for them.

          A bit of a random question: on a single user instance, if you subscribe to a community, then later unsubscribe from it, would that community still show up in your All feed?
