Why not subscribe to the stuff you want to see and then only filter by subscribed? I honestly find it strange that people don't do this by default.
Or local as well. Your instance could have more on it than you are subscribed to.
This is exactly what I do! Unfortunately, when I first log into Lemmy or Kbin, despite me having my settings set to show me only subscribed stuff by default, it totally ignores that setting (and what communities I’ve blocked) and just shows me the equivalent of /all on kbin or on that Lemmy server. You can get back to only seeing subscribed things by refreshing, but at that point the damage has been done, the NSFW has already popped up on your screen and you have to refresh to take it away. Seems just in the realm of “annoying” except for the fact that some people also have their defaults set to subscribed in an effort to avoid ragebait or triggering content.
There’s a codeberg issue for this on kbin already, so just have to wait for it to be addressed. Not sure if Lemmy has an equivalent issue on their GitHub (or whatever they use) yet.
I do not have the same problem as OP. Probably because when I made my accounts, if there was an option to disable NSFW (or not enable NSFW) I made sure to have NSFW disabled/not enabled.
This doesn't seem to happen on lemmy. And even if it did, my "All" filter is all memes.
That’s odd, maybe your instance fixed it. I have accounts on two Lemmy instances. I just logged myself into those instances and they both ignored the fact that I have it set to Subscribed. Not to All.
Not everyone is lucky enough to have their All be memes, and even still some memes I just don’t feel like seeing, or whose point are “lol thing bad.” Even if I agree with you that Thing is Bad I don’t want to see it.
I understand. I hear it's an issue on Kbin and it might be fixed on the newest versions of lemmy. But that's just how "All" is, you'll see everything whether you like it or not.
The problem is users like me who set to Subscribed and end up seeing All without ever choosing to navigate there. I fully understand that if I choose to look at All I can get blasted with anything, including things I don’t like. My entire problem is that I didn’t choose this. I opted out of it and am forced to see it anyways, which is how I became aware that not everyone is lucky enough to just have memes.
That sounds like a problem with the browser your using. Try clearing cache, going back to default settings. See if it happens in a private window, or different browser altogether.
Tried with cleared cache and private mode, still happens. Will try with different browser when I get to my computer.
EDIT: Tried on my computer, no dice. Thanks anyways!
I personally want to keep my subscribed list small and manageable. I only subscribe to communities that I actively want to interact with the majority of the posts made. I actively avoid subbing to large communities because it makes interacting with the small ones nearly impossible.
The majority of my browsing comes from local or all.
I prefer to do this as well. So all would be obviously whatever the rest of the instance is subscribed to and should include large communities, then I would look at my subscriptions to see the smaller or more niche stuff.
