Even after a server is widely used, the default should be all.

That's the whole point of federation. That's what everybody is saying. That's even what join-lemmy promotes; you see it all because of federation.

"Local" should be the most niche rarely used setting ever.

Subscribed should be the default if you have any subscriptions i.e. are logged in.

Hmm, I don't know it depends on the context. I am on startrek.website and for that community with a lot of new star trek fans coming in who don't necessarily know much about federation and the fediverse I think having the default be local to just star trek content makes way more sense. For other communities not built around a specific fanbase having the default be all makes way more sense. It just depends I think.

Come to think of it, we should rename "all" to "UFP" lol
