People really do be needing to look at the Local and Global timelines. There's a lot of chatter about regular, non-linuxy things there.

Honestly, I think I'm completely sold on the idea that the Local timeline should be the default.

I love the idea of the decentralized services, but trying to browse global all is a nightmare. Even browsing local all I have a ton of communities blocked and add more every day. The only downside is when communities I like migrate to a different instance. I still try global all once every few months, but it never lasts long.

Subscribed should definitely be the main feed for most people, that's the best way to get a curated feed.

Getting multiple personal feeds would also help.

Discoverability is my biggest issue with the subscribed feed. If I'm using subscribed, I'm not finding new communities. Curating a set of base communities that I want to see does seem like it would be worth the effort, though. Thanks for the suggestion.

On Lemmy I browse Subscribed until I run out of new posts. Then I switch to All and look for communities to add. Over time I've been spending more and more time on Subscribed, as my list grows.

This post is about Mastodon, I haven't been able to figure that place out yet.
