Lemmy is losing users?

please explain what's going on.

All I know as I get to know lemmy using sync I'm a little frustrated because my feed is limited and doesn't let me infinitely scroll and it only updates like once a day which is frustrating because I would scroll forever if I could. But it doesn't let me. It dead ends Then there are simply no posts. I have to come back the next day. perhaps this is built-in on purpose to make sure we don't spend & lose our lives here.

Also:

I use sync and have an endless scroll. Something must be up, maybe a setting? You're not missing much...

All vs subscribed? I don't have infinite scroll on my subscribed subs, so I use All.

Oh, that's what it is. I've taken the approach that on lemmy it's better to browse all and block almost everything than it is to see nothing on subscribed. That said, I wish it was easier to block instances and people. It takes, like, 4 clicks and is a pain.

Thank you for explaining this. I will try this.

Takes a while but pays off eventually. So many German instances. So much kinky anime*. Who knew there were that many sports teams?

It does let interesting ones filter through from time to time. I subscribe to those and figure in a thousand years I'll have a feed like I used to on reddit.

*I don't mind some kink, but man, that's some bent shit.
