I only see a handful of communities posts, but miss a lot from smaller communities that aren’t as active but do get daily posts. Reddit blended in smaller communities really well and it’s something I’m struggling with here.

    I have about 30 communities I’m subscribed to and 90% of it is the memes and shitpost communities. So 2 communities are basically all I see. They’re probably the most active but it’s still extremely disproportionate. I’m like you I want to unsubscribe but it doesn’t seem like the right way. Maybe I’ll do it to test if smaller communities content comes through.

      I think I found a good solution: I created 3 accounts in 3 different instances. In one instance, I only subscribe to serious stuff like worldnews and technology and things like that. In another account, I subscribe only to memes. Both these accounts have NSFW disabled. The third account is the NFSW one.

      At least in the Liftoff app, it’s trivial to change between accounts - so I basically have 3 separate feeds, with the added benefit that if any one of the instances is down I can still use Lemmy and see what’s going on in the “All” tab in any of the instances.
