Oh my god I wish I could just "block all Japanese cartoon communities"
Fucksake guys
For real. So much moe stuff posted that I actually learned what it means... Started posting this in every post before blocking the community.
This is my preferred method as well.
It would be so much easier if instance blocking was working for me, I have had to block any lammynsfw community manually when they show up, despite having added lemmynsfw.com to the block list...

Subscribed, and then All when I've seen all the Subscribed posts
This is the way. Also, sorted by new.
Subs first, then All. The only reason I browse All is because I'm all caught up with my subs and there's nothing else to consume but All.
New or by 1 hour.
I dont sign up for communities. Just throw it all at me. I want an unfiltered and unadulterated view as to whatever the capitol C community is into.
You're a psychopath!
I do a subscribed run, then i go into all. Since i sort by "Top Twelve hours" i only have one or two pages of subscribed
All because I like seeing more than just what I subscribe to.
How else would I see a bunch of news article headlines that I'll never read the actual article of but still make a comment on purely based on the article headline? /s

All. When I don't like a certain community I block them.
I usually start with subscribed, and when I run out of new content I switch to all and it reminds me why I prefer to stick with subscribed as a default.
All. Throw it all at me. Gork needs content.
I use subscribed first and then once I have looked at the new things under my subscribed feed I switch to all and top either today or top in past 12 hours
Edit: In fact, all top today is how I found this post to begin with. Otherwise, I would not have seen it.
All 6h for the win
Same! Will do a single 12h view first thing in the morning, but other than that 6h hits the sweet spot
Subscribed, because all is way too depressing.
Seriously, there's way too many doomers on Lemmy that just want everyone to be miserable
Subscribed.
If I view all, all I get is a bunch of repetitive news posts and a whooole lotta pro russia stuff. Im just here for the memes and video games.
Always subscribed, otherwise it's just memes and political shit flooding my feed.
All, then block communities I. Which I have no interest.
6 months ago it was essential, because there was t a great deal of content. I don’t know if I’d do it if I was joining today.
I am still relatively new to Lemmy, so I view New All so I can catch any new communities that I want to subscribe to. Once my list get sufficiently diverse I will switch to New Subscribed.
I start with subscribed, once caught up i switch to all. I have an account on a small niche instance that i switch to and read local for a bit too.

Subscribed, definitely.
Way easier than playing whack-a-mole with the block button.
Subscribed only for me. I can't imagine the amount of politics, drama, porn and other stuff that's on the all feed which I don't want to see.
I'd like to thank all the "all browsers" that see something they don't like on "all", but ignore it and move on with their life.
For whenever reason there's people out there that browse by "all", but downvote stuff they don't like. And then make huge ranty posts about how Lemmy is full of toxicity, furry porn, politics, anime or whatever.
Surprisingly less porn than you'd imagine. Though I go a different way, I browse all (because of FOMO) but block communities that post stuff I don't want to see. Now I have a very tailored all feed that also includes new stuff I might not have known about to subscribe to.
Yep, I do this as well. It's like subscriptions plus surprises.

The real question is hot or top?
Scaled
All. My subscribed communities aren't all that active currently, or it's just daily posts by me in the communities I moderate.
Subscribed and if I want more after that then I go check all too but that basically means subscribed + memes as I have blocked around 400 communities that I'm not interested about.
Both, I'll flip into All if the updates are coming slow on my sub feed
Subscribed.
I look for interesting communities on lemmyverse.net rather than browsing "All".
Yes
All top 12 hour. Subscriptions? Never heard of her.
Subscribed + scaled. But occasionally I switch to All + scaled to check if there is something new in trend.
Both. If I'm looking at subscribed, usually I'll sort by New. If it's All, I'll go by Active or Hot.
it does depend. if i'm picking fights, i view comments by new in my subs. if i'm trying to mindlessly scroll, i view all.
always All. it's how i find new communities. it would prob be good if i start subscribing to more of the communities that i like though.
atm i'm just relying on the collective views of the threadiverse to feed me content.
All, but I block porn
I start with subscribed sorted by new. After that, I flick over the scaled subscribed, and then I go to scaled all
Subscribed first then all if I want to see what else is there.
Subscribed and every so often I search for new communities to follow
Subs.
I doomscroll all till I realise it's not my subscribed feed.
