Hey, thank you for this, I had been wanting something along these lines. I have a personal instance, and this will let me import more communities for myself. I just tried it and it works a treat. Takes it a couple of seconds if the community is not yet in my “All” list, but it totally finds it and then I can subscribe or just let it be. Thanks!

Yeah, I’m hoping it will clear up with time as other commenters have suggested!

Thank you for the input, I’ll keep an eye on it and hope it fixes itself with time.

Done!

It seems like you can select everything in the admin panel, which is what I did. But only the languages that have actually appeared in your instance will show as options in the individual user settings, so I was only able to select Undetermined and English on my user. Anyway, the devs should format the language lists as checkboxes, that would have completely solved the issue since I would have known from the start that I could select multiple things. My browsing experience just got exponentially better!

Damn, there it is. It was the language, actually the opposite of what you described. I logged out of my instance and magically all the posts appeared. Then I noticed that only posts without a language were appearing. I had undetermined selected as the server language in the admin panel, I didn’t realize I could select more than one thing (and the warning about deselecting Undetermined had me thinking that only have undetermined selected would let me see everything). So, I turned on more languages in the admin panel and then selected English and Undetermined as the languages in my user account and voilá! Thank you for your help!

Still seeing the same behavior. Weirdly, if I search for a specific post that I know should be appearing but isn’t, it pops up immediately in the search results and I can even navigate to it within my instance (it still doesn’t show comments), but it is not popping up in my feed anywhere or on the community’s age in my instance.

Currently I am on 0.17.3 for both, I could update to the latest release candidate and see if anything changes.

I have confirmed that we are cross-referencing each other. I’ve also been monitoring the logs, the only error I’ve seen go by is the following one from the postgres container:
