Everything includes Subscribed ๐ตโ๐ซ
Agreed. This makes sense only if Subscribed were somehow weighted more heavily so it appeared to be Hotter or more Active, but that might need to be a Lemmy change rather than a SyncForLemmy change.
Instead of weighting posts, could also just do alternating posts from each list. With deduplication as well.
As @foo@lemmy.ca says, sort by NEW.
That would only really work well if you had an equal number / frequency of posts coming in on your 'Everything' and 'Subscription' feeds. Otherwise the posts from your subscriptions could pretty easily get 'overwhelmed'.
I think the idea is, see almost everything you are subscribed to, but also don't miss any very popular posts. Ideally I'd love to be able to specify the ratio even. Something like "show me 5 posts from my subscriptions, followed by 1 post from another feed (e.g. Everything)".
Or just subscribe to more communities/magazines so that your subscribed feed provides enough content to keep your scrolling needs met.
But you don't see posts from any of the niche small communities you're subscribed to.
Maybe sort by New?
Bingo
I'm not a Sync user (or a Lemmy user, even - I'm on kbin) but something I'd love see in general across the threadiverse is to be able to add some sort of weighting to certain communities/magazines. There are some meme communities that I don't necessarily want to block entirely, but that show up in my feed far too often, and there are some niche communities I wish I could see more from. Having a "weighted all" feed would be fantastic.
