I am still new to Lemmy and don’t understand some things.
One is: Why do I have to subscribe to a whole channel if I want to only write about one specific thing?
It just doesn’t make sense to me, because it will just pollute my timeline with stuff I really want to see. If I have an opinion on one thing, but will see everything about this topic in my timeline, the timeline will be useless after a few days.
Thanks for your help.

You can also unsubscribe from the community as soon as you’ve made the post. Agreed it’s unintuitive, but it’s a workaround that works for me.
But why subscribing to it at all? Sounds like 2 unnecessary steps.

That’s exactly what OC said too mate, they agree with you but suggested a temporary work-around

This was just a UI choice to only show one block button, you could open up a github issue on lemmy-ui for this.
Okay, I’ve created a feature request on github.

Sweet, thanks.
