I'm not sure if the issue is related to the Voyager app or PieFed. Has anyone else experienced the same issue?

Is home exactly the same as "subscriptions?" I get both on connect, and Home/Frontpage is not just subscriptions.

I had a similar issue after making this Piefed account. I remember there was a pop-up asking me to pick some general topics I’m interested in. Then my feed was automatically filled, I guess with the relevant recommendations.

After successfully importing settings/subscriptions from my Lemmy account, my Piefed feed was still showing communities that weren’t part of my subscriptions. I realized that I had been automatically subscribed to them. I had to manually go through and unsubscribe one by one. It was tedious lol I still don’t know what the heck happened (idk if I answered the pop-up and unknowingly agreed to some kind of starter pack?). But it’s over now so whatever

EDIT: Oh ok, just checked! If you’re talking about it happening just now, then yes it’s also happening to me on Voyager. Home feed is showing communities I’m not subbed to. Everything looks normal on desktop.

Thanks for checking! I was wondering if the issue is related to me or not.

[–] DearMoogle@piefed.social 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Yeah, my home feed is still broken in Voyager as of now. It’s actually showing me posts from a community that I blocked lol. But it’s ok, I’ll just go on another account til it gets fixed xD

[–] A@piefed.social 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Same. I hope they'll fix it soon.

[–] DearMoogle@piefed.social 1 points 1 day ago

Looks fixed! :)

I saw that pop-up too. However, I didn't select any topics as I remember, and no, I'm not subscribed to the communities that appear on my home page right now.

I have the same problem. I even see users that I have blocked (mostly bots).

What is your Default Feed in Settings->General->Other? Mine is Local so I constantly see communities I'm not subscribed to, but it's on purpose.

Yeah - realizing you already gave that info; I just wasn’t reading carefully enough…

How does pieFed relate to the voyager app? Is it your @? That shouldn't make a deference on home setting.

Have you checked there are toggles under communities that are pre selected groups of communities that add to your home selection. They are like introductory groups

communities - settings - starter packs

I've been using Lemmy for a long time, and I've never had an issue like this with the Voyager app before. A few days ago, I switched to PieFed and ran into this issue. That's why I thought it might be related to PieFed, not the Voyager app.

I checked. None of them are selected.
