I’m wondering how many of you really get specific news from subscribed communities ? I’m subscribed to so many I often forget to manually select this filter, so I feel like subscribing doesn’t really make a difference beyond a certain number.
What do you think ?

    I actually use an RSS feed reader to follow my subscribed communities, so my subscriptions are actually super important to me, and I only open Lemmy if I have an notification (which I also get by RSS) that I want to reply to, or if I want to check out other communities.

        Haha it’s very simple - if you go to your inbox, you have a small RSS icon next to the word “Inbox”. You can get that link and use your favourite RSS reader (I use Inoreader) to get them.

        Which turn out like this in my RSS reader:
