Every time I turn on the app, it switches back to local/active, whereas I would like subscribed/hot. It doesn’t seem to remember my setting, is this by design or a missing feature?
+1 Not a dev but I’d also prefer this to be the case. Especially since the value of the fediverse is that we can subscribe to many instances’ communities.
Additionally, to help spread the load, users were advised to sign up on other (usually smaller) instances that may not have big communities and defaulting to local communities means they don’t see much content and may discourage engagement.
I’ve noticed the same. My guess is that this is a bug, especially since under User Settings in the app we clearly have fields to specify our desired default sorting and display preferences. But alas, the drop down menu doesn’t work, typing on it doesn’t work, it just doesn’t work… So it defaults to local active.
