    I’m struggling to figure out where to find all the posts. I’m subscribing to communities and stuff but the same old posts keep appearing on the feed for 24hrs+. I’m flicking around with filters and manually exploring a lot and find things. It feels like I’m doing something wrong. Like there’s two new posts an hour in total.

    I’m probably doing it all wrong. I don’t even really know what the point of subscribing is since I need to go into communities to see things, otherwise nothing shows up on the feed.

    I’m bouncing between 4 apps, though, so kind of hamstring myself with familiarity.

      Be sure to set your filter to “subscribed” or “all” instead of “local”, and give it a few seconds to load content from other instances.

      If you subscribe to some communities, you WILL have an option to see posts only from those communities, you shouldn’t have to go into a community unless you only want to see posts from that particular one. Also, I’m new but the default sort is usually “active”, which I assume means posts which have a lot of activity, such as comments. Try setting it to hot or something else to check whether you get a better variety of posts.
