Do I have to sub to 20 of the same boards?
Yes. And then you get 20 versions of the same post hiding the one unique post that you didn’t want to miss out on.

Do you mean the parent and OP won’t be notified of your comment? If they come back to the post it will all be visible to them, right? I personally think that’s best, but I was a forum user (phpBB, vBulletin) and rarely got notifications.
On Mastodon it tries to @ everyone so I presume that causes everyone to be notified. You can @ people on Lemmy too I think.
