I’ve been on Lemmy for 12 days apparently, feels like a lifetime! And I keep seeing posts about how it’s too empty or there’s no content outside of the Reddit drama or whatever.

So it got me thinking, am I just subbed to way more stuff than most? Because I go into the “all” tab maybe once a day, and keep busy in “subscribed” the rest of the time.

Here’s my stats:

  • 121 Lemmy communities
  • 42 Kbin magazines
  • 163 total

That’s for this account, although I also have a second account for slightly different topics so there’s probably another 20-30 or so unique subs on there.

How about you?

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.
