When I was at The Bad Place I had a sub just for me to post on… anyone could read and comment, but only I could make a post. I used it kind of like a notebook, nothing personal like a diary. A fix I made for Gratuitous Space Battles crashing, a can opener I really liked, a commentary on when Reddit hired a pedophile and tried to cover it up, etc. Basically anything I wanted to make publicly available but didn’t want to find/join a sub for.
The question is, is something like that possible in Lemmy without running my own instance? I know it’s possible on a technical level, I’m asking about social and/or convention.
It’s empty now but it was db2_ if you’re curious
Could you Lemmy some wisdom? Is there a way to only show post from communities I’m subscribed to?
I’m using an android app called lift off, but if there’s another option I’d probably switch.
In your account settings you can set the default home view to “subscribed”. Even without doing that “subscribed” should be one of the sort options on the home view of any Lemmy app.
Thanks I ended up switching to jerboa and found it right away.
The pulldown at the top, change it to Subscribed under the instance your account is on. You can change settings so it goes there automatically too.
