Why would anyone be on all? Even with reddit I I quit going to all probably 10 years ago....
And don't let my Lemmy age fool you, I drop my account every 6 to 8 months. It took my a lot longer to figure that out on reddit.
How do I find new communities to join if not for all?
You just click on communities and browse or search for ones to subscribe to.
Although if you are a smaller instance you may not see as many if others haven't branched out if I understand correctly.
Ok...then what do you recommend for a varied random feed of news and posts from various communities?
For me it's to find new content (i block most news/politics communities since they're most of c/all) but there's a lot of attention and eyes to be gained from all.
But most of this, as i said; is buried by the generic popular content.
Well yeah, that's what ALL is right? The most generic stuff. You can browse communities and subscribe as needed.
If you are going to use all It might help to enable scaled sorting.
It boosts small communities in the sort.
I'll try, thank you 🙂
