How many communities are you subscribed to?

Personally subscribed to 126, and it’s steadily growing by 2-4 each week. But curious to how many you are subscribed to too. Feel free to share your favorite community too!

You can use Photon webUI (if your instance supports it) to easily check this; photon.<your instance>.tld.

Happy Easter! 🐣🌻

technomad,

how does photon compare to alexandrite?

Sunny,

Not tried Alexandrite in a while, personally wasn’t a fan of the layout and the colour palette.

technomad,

Fair enough 🤷‍♂️

haui_lemmy,

I dont have photon because I didnt know it exists and I would have to make a separate subdomain for it if I understand correctly.

Can you point me to what photon exactly is?

Sunny,

Ok, so don’t quote me on this cos I’m not 100% sure about it. But, it’s a alternative webui frontend, that needs to be enabled/installed by admin of your instance in order to work. I don’t know much more than that, other than that it making Lemmy looking real nice 😊

haui_lemmy,

Thanks for elaborating! I might look into it. :)

Sunny,

No problem, have a nice day 🌻

haui_lemmy,

Thank you so much for the nice good bye! Its rare on lemmy for people to be this friendly. Respect! :)

Sunny,

I just checked it out. It looks like new Reddit.

Doesn’t have to be installed on your instance, you can also use the official web app instance. It’s very similar to how Voyager works.

phtn.app

Sunny,

Ouuhh, good to know!

The photon UI supports every instance at phtn.app, your instance doesn’t have to officially support it.

murmelade,

12 and half are duplicates from other instances. They are mostly dead so I browse all and my blocklist is very very very big.

1,022 give or take a few as we don’t have Photon, yet, but it’s in the to-do list.

gunpachi,

About 106 communities.

SomeGuy69,

16 but I mostly browse all.

kratoz29,

895, I don’t think all of them are active or even still going (were replaced by bigger instances).

Is there an easier way to count?

I have 13 pages so at 50 per page that makes 600-650, the majority of those are dead though.

Sunny,

I use the Photon web UI, so its listed at the top of the community nav bar. Photon is really quite neat :)

If your instance supports it, then you can browse to: photon.INSTANCE.tld

Doesn’t look like it’s installed on mander, shame.

would be nice if the communities page could show the date of the most recent post or something

but I guess anything with 0 users per month is obviously dead, unless it’s like an infrequently used announcements community

Pyr_Pressure,

Personally I don’t even subscribe to any. I just browse all and then filter out any community that pops up which I don’t think I’ll ever be interested in.

I started to subscribe to a few but when browsing subscribed only I felt like I was potentially missing so much, because maybe I subscribed to the wrong “aww” instance but I also didn’t want to go through and find the 3-4 different versions to subscribe to.

This way I see everything, except the stuff that I definitely don’t want to see (like most of the porn instances, non-english instances, etc.)

onlinepersona,

63 subs here. Most of them aren’t active though…

CC BY-NC-SA 4.0

Commiunism,

0 cause I feel there’s not enough content to have subscriptions so I just scroll by top/active.

haui_lemmy,

Interesting take. What would „enough“ be?
