Cannot find an easy way to see my current subscribed magazines, apart from going to settings -> subscritions, that I find it very annoying.
Would be great having them on the top bar instead of random magazines I don't care about.
Also, when I browse a single magazine, I only see local content (even though the federation toggle is "On") while other magazines with the same name exist in other servers.
Wasn't this a federated network? I'd like to browse a single federated magazine.
If I understood you correctly, that's what I want too. I'd like to browse a magazine globally, not only locally. Right now, when I'm on a magazine, I'm only seen local posts.
(sorry if I misunderstood your post, english is not my first language)
@Tigrezno there is a lot of requests for a muliti-magazine (ie multireddit) type feature. Its something id like as well. Not sure if its being worked on yet though.
@Tigrezno yes you've misunderstood - what i mean to say is that what you're noticing is absolutely a feature of multiple instances/servers being able to speak to each other. You can access their posts, and they can come in their own communities of the same interest. If you mean to say local content as in (for example) gaming @ kbin dot social and you're on that instance but you'd like also read gaming @ lemmy dot ml, then yes. In that case, gaming @ kbin is the local content, and the Lemmy one can be accessed on federated basis. But you can post comments to both. The key thing to understand is in a decentralized system, there's no 'global' version or hub. You're basically visiting branches or chapters of say, the same set of hobbyists.

@Tigrezno on your last point, you've hit on something fundamental about federated platforms which may be a deal breaker for you: that's a feature not a bug (the same named community existing across multiple instances). The federation is then you can access them all from where you are.
