The onboarding will offer you a lot of topics to sign up to. These contain communities in them. The idea is to populate subscription feeds, however it can leave some users with a lot of undesired subscriptions if they click too many.

If you wish to roll this back. Go to Settings -> Profile and click the yellow bar. Don’t click the red bar!

    Hello everyone. New to piefed but not to the fediverse. Wanted to try this one after being on lemmy for over a year.

    I noticed a funny thing: while boost lets me log in and see the posts, it only shows a part of the comments of this post.

    Then I logged with blorp and instantly saw them all.

      Huh. Sounds like a bug in boost, if you know where to report those!

      A lot of the apps were developed for Lemmy first (as you’re probably aware) and Piefed support is often experimental still, so it’s not unheard of that there could be some bugs here and there.
