your post inspired me to go looking, so I browsed around 50 pages worth of mags and am now subbed to about 82
Looks like I'm currently at 79. I have at least twice that blocked as I try to customize my experience as much as possible.
What is the benefit of blocking communities? Not sure I get it.
I browse all/active on kbin and it just keeps those from popping up when there are newer or popular threads. Like, I'm not interested in furry stuff so I blocked all those so that they don't populate on my feed no matter how I sort it.
Oh I understand. My home instance is a very small one (maybe 30 users) so I am really only concerned with what should subscribe to and not what I should block. It makes sense to need that if you have a big home instance that you can use the all/active feed with.
I might conveniently interject here and say that the "all" search (on Lemmy, at least) will show every community that a user of your home instance has viewed at least once. In other words, it will display content from every community in its cache. Since we're getting more users, the "all" sort is a pretty diverse array of content.
What are kbin magazines. Different than communities? Where
I could have this wrong, but I think kbin magazines are the same thing as lemmy communities.
The question that I have is what's the lemmy equivalent of kbin microblogs?
92 'subs' so far.
Sub as a noun is fine. Sub can just mean subscription (to a community) or "at a lower level" so lower than an instance, thus community.
I'm on 13 communities in this instance and a few more in Beehaw. I purged my Reddit account over a week ago and didn't keep track of all the subs. But I realized how much clutter I had. So, I'm going to be more selective now.
Also, I've heard kbin a few times. Should I be making an account over there?
