Can’t you just make the Local feed your default?
Personally I just subscribe to everything I want to see and browse that.
The only problem with that is not seeing posts from other instances I don’t want to block.
Maybe it’s just me, but I’d prefer Subscribed to be personally curated communities, Local to be instance curated, and All to be a place to get a broader picture of, well, everything.
I’d just find it easier/more natural to opt-in to other instance content rather than opt-out.
sorry I don’t understand the difference that you’re looking for, Local already is “instance curated” by your local instance
Yes. I want All to be just other instances that I’m interested in. Not every available (federated) instance.
so you want to be able to subscribe to instances and have a new feed for the “Subscribed Instances” (as opposed to the existing Subscribed for communities)
not directly related, but have you looked at Feeds and Topics? piefed.social/feeds and piefed.social/topics
You can also follow remote feeds piefed.social/feed/add_remote
The mislabled all feed isn’t actually an all feed, but just posts from communities that you, or someone else on your instance has subscribed to.

That’s the answer right there. The lemmy personal customization is quite flexible. You can even make it behave like an old-school forum if you want.
