Toot

Well rather, how will you pick which communities go in that feed? It’s not a bad plan, but transparency would encourage your users to use that feed

Homepage should be based on communities with maximum subscribers. But with a login, each user can subscriber/unsubscribe and create their custom homepage. Yes, once we have some stability and traffic, we should publish these choices we made for transparency.

With how new fediverse tech is, a lot of new rules will be “written” based on what people try. Obfuscating or misleading people on where content is coming from (which is the concern people are expressing here), seems like something people will push back against.

Obfuscation was not the objective. Now after many complained, you can see real username and servername on each post.

As such, you might find it easier to build a userbase by avoiding what Reddit has done rather than try to emulate it

That is not my vision and I am ok if users decide this is not what they want and adoption fails.
