Is it bad Lemmy etiquette to “pollute” the All feed of a niche instance?

mookulator@lemmy.world to No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world – 58 points –

I heard that the All feed aggregates content from all communities that instance members have subscribed to, meaning if I subscribe to a new community, it’ll start showing up in everyone else’s All feed.

Let’s suppose I have an account on an instance with a particular thematic focus. Should I avoid subscribing to communities outside of that theme, in order to preserve the purity of their All feed?

How can I see all feeds on all instances while not being subscribed?

EDIT: pleas disregard. I read the sticky. You must manually search for unknown communities.

If you are on a popular instance where everyone else has subscribed to other instances you might get lucky!
