    I browse by new and block communities I really dislike, so I see new unknown stuff, which is usually great. Also I have some filter words in my client for reoccurring things that started to annoy me.

    It’s better than subscriptions IMO.

      I used to do that, though now on PieFed I use a combination of Notifications sent for very low-volume communities, categories of communities, and feeds, and these days almost never browse by New anymore. I very much prefer it this way bc of how things are organized - e.g. I can unsubscribe from most politics communities, and then whenever I want it, it is all still immediately accessible in that category. So I can have my cake and still eat it too! 🤤🎂
