This may be useful for folks looking to expand their feed. I discovered this on accident and it completely revolutionized my experience on Kbin.

To view all of an instance’s posts, just use https://kbin.social/d/[instance domain here]

This appears to work for all Kbin instances, most Lemmy instances, and some Mastodon instances (this may have to do with their federation with kbin.social - I’m uncertain). Other platforms may work as well. Some examples:

https://kbin.social/d/lemmy.world
https://kbin.social/d/lemmy.ml
https://kbin.social/d/geddit.social

https://kbin.social/d/mastodon.social
https://kbin.social/d/hachyderm.io

Just hit the button to subscribe, and the entire instance is in your feed. It also provides a nice jumping off point to explore and subscribe to specific communities on that instance.

When you use this technique with a list like what’s available from the Fediverse Observer, it really widens the reach of your feed and your ability to participate across the Fediverse.

      I would like to see subdomains for communities here. like @competitive.kbin.social for lots of sport-like things as an example. Also place (city, state, country) and fandom or other stuff like that. And make it easy for people to block that subdomain with allowances for the things they actually want to see (though I guess if it’s still accessible by subscriptions or directly going there, that works too).

      Hoping eventually that will be the way it should work, but it would also be smart to have small subs here that way if something crazy happens people can still communicate.

        Yeah there’s definitely going to be some organic growth with generic instances with lots of catchall subs and a few specific topic ones. It’s a interesting method to create a online community
