It should work fine. Filtering by one instance will show all Lemmy content. You can use a script to ensure you always land back on your instance.

It’s still worth posting, a lot of people browse Lemmy only using the /all feed.

just filter by your instance, e.g google thing_youre_interested_in site:sh.itjust.works

are you guys just not aware you can filter by site?

Sync is outdated and will be broken in a future Lemmy update, some features already don’t work (such as hiding read posts, they’re meant to stay hidden but they don’t in Sync). I’d suggest trying out Boost for Lemmy, Summit, Thunder, Jerboa, Eternity - roughly in that order.

my weird fun fact about Myanmar is that a small region of it in the east (Wa State) is a de-facto independent military-communist dictator state.

oh there’s uh, lots, lots more than just 2 groups fighting it out in Myanmar. It’s a really complex conflict that’ll probably never fully resolve.

This is more of a America problem than a pizza guy problem.

It’s also worth ensuring you have at least both “Undetermined” and “English” selected as your languages in your settings.

I find Lemmy isn’t super at pushing newer content at the top, and you have to just mix between the different sorts. The content is definitely there. The alternative way to mitigate this is as follows:

• In my settings I have “show read posts” unticked. This ensues posts I interact with (e.g click on, vote on) with disappear from my feed afterwards (upon refresh/reload, of course). I don’t think it clears posts that have appeared in your feed but you haven’t interacted with. This is extremely effective in keeping your feed fresh.
• When browsing on my phone (Boost For Lemmy), I make frequent use of its “hide all read” button to quickly gut anything on my feed that I’ve seen before (no interaction needed).
• You can, of course, just manually hide posts as you go but uh, the above methods are better at automating that process for you.

I used to get really annoyed with stale feeds but upon doing the above it’s pretty much always fresh content.

That said, it won’t hurt to subscribe to more communities!
