Exponential learning curve?

Trying to figure out how to like get updates? I'm trying to find people to follow on here but like even when I subscribe it feels like nothing shows up on my feed? Is that for like personal entries or is it like some weird feature I don't fully understand. 

 

Oh well, I'm just trying this place out and truth be told I kinda like the quiet slow moving vibes.

When you subscribe to a blog or community, your reading page should show their public entries plus any private ones you have access to. Some people only post once a week, or less. Some post multiple times a day. Try subscribing to a few of the high-traffic communities like [community profile] fandomcalendar and [community profile] awesomeers then see if their posts appear. You might also try the Add Me communities and look for folks who say they post frequently and have interests you like.

If your reading page still shows NO posts, I don't know what else could cause that.

>> I'm able to see some of the people I follow but one of them I know they are posting but it doesn't show up on my reading page. <<

Ask if they're using access lock or filters. Some people want to limit what they share with whom. If you see a tiny lock dingbat on a post, that means it is locked but you have access.

>>Idk. So far it seems to be a lovely place here. <<

That's good to hear.

>>Thank you for dropping by and all your advice and clarification on stuff. :D

*bow, flourish* Happy to be of service.
