Many people including myself have desired a more varied all feed.

    Three hypotheses:

    1. It’s easier to find news content than other stuff. And your typical forumverse user is more likely to share what they find, because they know this place needs more content.
    2. News content gets more engagement than hobby content.
    3. Feedback loop: more news content attracts people who are mostly interested on news content, and those people post more news content.

    My all feed can empty pretty quickly when I turn on the politics/news filter, I just wish there were more chill posts.

    That’s also my experience with manual subscription in Lemmy.
