I'm new to Boost. Quality of Life questions (lemmy.world)

I've been using Sync for a while and decided to try Boost but I can't seem to find certain settings. I don't know if I'm just missing them and they are super obvious or they haven't been implemented yet so my apologies if these are newb questions.

  • I'd love for my default sort to be "Everything" instead of "Subscribed" communities. So far, lemmy has been amazing and have only subscribed to specific communities. Is there a way to set this? I already set it to my preferred sort (Top 6 hours) but don't see a way to set it to all of Lemmy.
  • Is there a way to set a "default" account? Eg upon closing the app, when I reopen it, I'd like it to default to a specific account. I've been collecting a few different lemmy instance accounts but consider this one my main.
  • is there a way to set different sort options and different viewing options per account? I have a porn account and a normal account and would prefer my normal account to filter out NSFW (so that I can have it on at work).

Thanks!

IDK about the first two, still learning it myself, but for your third bullet point:

Settings > Account Preferences > Show NSFW

This is a setting that's saved by your instance, not by Boost, so if you change it on one account it shouldn't affect the others. I think.

  1. Question: General > Subscriptions (under Navigation) and you can set as default whichever you like from the 3 dots menu next to each.

The other questions I can't answer because I don't have multiple accounts.

Thanks! I figured there was a way to do it but wish it was a bit more intuitive!

It's quite customisable but as a result takes a little figuring out. I think your other questions may be feature requests as I don't know if it has the ability to do that.

EDIT: under Account Preferences in settings you can uncheck show nfsw per account. This is lemmy-wide though, not just Boost iirc.
