Why don't all subscribed communities show up on 'subscription' feed?
I only see a handful of communities posts, but miss a lot from smaller communities that aren't as active but do get daily posts. Reddit blended in smaller communities really well and it's something I'm struggling with here.

I have about 30 communities I'm subscribed to and 90% of it is the memes and shitpost communities. So 2 communities are basically all I see. They're probably the most active but it's still extremely disproportionate. I'm like you I want to unsubscribe but it doesn't seem like the right way. Maybe I'll do it to test if smaller communities content comes through.
I think I found a good solution: I created 3 accounts in 3 different instances. In one instance, I only subscribe to serious stuff like worldnews and technology and things like that. In another account, I subscribe only to memes. Both these accounts have NSFW disabled. The third account is the NFSW one.
At least in the Liftoff app, it's trivial to change between accounts - so I basically have 3 separate feeds, with the added benefit that if any one of the instances is down I can still use Lemmy and see what's going on in the "All" tab in any of the instances.
This is a good idea to try out. I'll try it thanks!
I’ve considered this, but fragmenting my identity seems a bit of a hassle as well. Ultimately, it will alleviate the problem but not solve it, anyway.
In any case, there is an open issue on github (someone beat me to it). Let’s hope it gains traction!
