Subscribed and if I want more after that then I go check all too but that basically means subscribed + memes as I have blocked around 400 communities that I'm not interested about.

All. If I scroll too far and the blurry thumbnails appear more frequently, I know I need to stop scrolling for that day.
Subscribed and every so often I search for new communities to follow
Usually just all sorted by new
it does depend. if i'm picking fights, i view comments by new in my subs. if i'm trying to mindlessly scroll, i view all.
All top 6 hours or subscribed scaled.
Both. That's what I like about it. If I viewed all on Reddit it could be boring but Lemmy is interesting both ways.
Subscribed. Being bombarded with global politics all day isn't good for anyone's state of mind.
Subscribed, then specific communities by url (since sometimes smaller community posts don't show up on the frontpage), then All if I'm really bored.
Usually All. I started that way to find more communities to sub but then got in the habit. Even with a healthy list of subs I still feel a bit limited on subscribed, see more activity on all.
All.
Both, subsribed on new und all on active
Local New first, once that is exhausted I view All New.
Both.
Subscribed, and when I soon run out of content I switch to all.
I dislike Reddit as much as anyone here but god do I miss the sheer amount of content.
First Subscribed sorted by new, the all by Top X.
All - Top - 6 Hours
If I'm feeling cheeky I'll browse hot or sometimes even Scaled
I view all, sorted by Newest Comment and then sort the comments by New. I really only subscribe to things to get them federated with my instance (so many communities on other instances, I am literally the only one on my own instance subscribed to them so they don't show up on my feed at all before I find them) and to be able to quickly see a specific community by itself, if I so desire.
All. I find new communities all the time!
Subscribed, although there isn't much content so I'm trying to find posts on other places.
All, same reasons as others, not enough active communities with my specific interests, the all feed is good though :)
That's how I used reddit too for many years, took a long time to curate subs, I hope a similar thing can come about in Lemmy
All new lol. I look at subscribed after I get sick of all.
Subscribed - Hot is how I generally browse but I also check All - Top 12 Hours and All - New from time to time.
I've curated enough active communities to just browse Home every few hours. But if I'm curious, I browse All on occasion.
Both are set to Rising, and All excludes all subscribed communities.
Viewing all is always a bad idea.
