It would be a good way of seeing what else is out there.

Doesn’t viewing by “All” show all subs in the feed
Yeah, but this only shows communities followed by at least one user of your instance.
Is that true? I didn’t realise this.
Yep that’s how all these federated services work. Your instance can only show you stuff it already knows about, so someone needs to have been first to find and follow it.
Yep. I host my own instance, and /all is essentially the same as /subscribed for me, plus a few posts that I’ve pulled manually by clicking links.
Sounds right to me. I have my own small instance so All just shows me the same thing as my regular one. If I go to All on one of the bigger ones I see a lot more.

What I enjoyed doing on The Other Place was going to a random community and seeing its top posts, its hot posts. It gave a sense of how vibrant or interesting it was.
The Sync For Lemmy app has random community functionality.

Interesting! I’m on Jerboa now, but I’ll check it out. Thanks!
This does seem like a fun thing for someone to build! Get on it, nerds.
