On one instance I have subbed to 136 communities. This was my first instance I joined and just looking for any communities that looked interesting.
I originally tried to duplicate that in the new instances I signed up on, but eventually gave up finding it to be too tedious.
At some point, on my main instance/account I started weeding out communities that were not as exciting or active as I was hoping for.
On some newer instances, I keep to a handful of subject matters based on the instance's primary community subjects (ex: startrek.website)
I have only played around with kbin a few times and have had a more difficult time initially setting it up and subscribing to magazines, but that's where I came across this thread.
I am eager to see app development for lemmy and kbin since I enjoy browsing casually from my phone. Half the time I am on Jerboa, the other half on the PWA for lemmy. Just started using the kbin PWA.
I like having multiple instances to view different content that may not be available due to defederation (beehaw) and I sometimes find new communities on one instance that don't populate from another (possible bug?)
As for my main interests, I am subbed to all instance versions of that community (news, gaming, etc) since they all have good but separate threads and interactions.
My hope is, that once a third-party app that is able to combine and standardize my viewing and search preferences, I will switch to that and only keep maybe 2 or 3 accounts to seperate professional vs personal interests, vs straight up casual and unorganized viewing.
