My biggest problem with kbin (kbin.social)

The biggest problem with kbin is honestly quite simple, but I don't people is talking about is the fact that finding the magazines that I'm subscribed to is in Settings > Subscribed, on Reddit, it's literally in the top bar, I don't get why it's buried in settings. Another thing is why is my home page full of posts from magazines that I'm not subscribed to and mostly not intrested in? I know I can do /sub to access the magazines feed, but why is hidden and why isn't it just the default?

It makes sense to do it that way otherwise everyone would see an empty page when they first signed up.

At least this way you can use the home page for discovery initially and once that gets too noisy use /sub as your homepage.

It only makes sense until the user has subscribed to anything. Once there's one or more subscriptions, nothing else should appear on the homepage.
