A few days ago when I was using /sub I only saw the magazines that I subscribed to. This seems like the intended behavior. But now I see threads from all kinds of magazines plus the ones subscribed under /sub. How can I hide the magazines I am not subscribed to from the subscribed threads view?

Is this a bug? Am I doing something wrong?

At first I believed it was because I followed some people and they used the boost feature or something. But this is not the case.

In my subscription feed the top threads are from nostupidquestions@lemmy.world, fediverse@lemmy.world, games@lemmy.world, piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com, kbinMeta, casualconversation@lemmy.world, apolloapp@reddthat.com […]

fediverse@lemmy.world and kbinMeta are the only two of these that I have subscribed.

    Solution: I had somehow subscribed to the DOMAIN kbin.social by mistake. I didn’t even know this was possible. This took a long time figuring out because domain subscriptions can only be seen from the settings page, not from the public facing profile page.

      That makes sense now. Glad you figured it out. The question is how you did that to begin with, mainly for reference to avoid others from doing it, unless they want that. But it sort of nullifies the idea of subscriptions. At least if I or other readers of this see someone ever pop up with a similar problem we know where to point them to look.

        Fully agreed, and thanks for taking the time to respond to my post. I don’t remember how I did it. I think I wanted to subscribe to the magazin kbin and ended up subscribing to the whole domain, too (the timing fits).

        While the mistake is certainly on my part, from a usability point of view it would have helped if the two separate subscription lists profile>subscriptions (some features) and settings>subscriptions (all features) would be consolidated into one single list.

    I can’t help with a solution, but I can say that if I set my view to subscribed, I only see my subscribed instances and nothing else, no matter how many times I page down. I can’t find a setting or anything that should conflict with it. Do you have any scripts/extensions that might be somehow pulling in anything extra? I can’t think of any I’ve seen like that, they’ve all been appearance-based.

      Thanks for the response. I don’t have anything out of the ordinary, I think (certainly no custom scripts). I‘m a casual user with a regular Chrome browser in default settings.

      It seems to be my account. I have the same issue when logging in on my phone.

    Glad you figured it out. I was seeing the same thing, but I realized I had followed the people posting the threads.

    I think I was able to narrow it down and it feels like a bug.

    The subscribed threads view has an additional filter option: all, links, articles, photos, videos. When choosing links or videos my subscriptions are respected. When choosing any of the other three filters my subscriptions are not respected.
