I think this has negative effects on the threadiverse because it tends to keep user's focus at lemmy.world and in general keeps users to stay in their bubbles

The subscribed feed would be empty and the All feed would be irrelevant in the Arsenal fan’s case.

Local would be full of posts from communities inside the Arsenal instance. Why would that be confusing?

It would be fine. Thing is there aren't that many content-specific instances. The Arsenal-Lemmy-Server is a bad example to generalize upon

This is where we disagree. I have active accounts in 3 instances and none of them are general-purpose. I need local feed in all of them.

We don’t really need more general-purpose instances. There’s <10 right now and that’s good enough. But there’s >100 content-specific instances. I may be wrong on the numbers, I’ll run some analytics and get back

@_thisdot @blue_berry If you use IceCubes you can add multiple local feeds.
