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.

@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.

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.
