I post in limited-visibility subs to keep things topically organized.
I have a solution for this. If the subs are hierarchical, i.e subs of subs (the same structure as nested comments actually, a Tree). For example, s/politics would have s/debateAltRight and s/AntiwokeLiberals. Subscribing to s/politics would inlcude posts from ALL sub-subs that you haven't unselected. S/all would just be the top level encompassing the entire hierarchy (root of the tree in CS terms)
Now see how this changes the incentive - My incentive to increase visibility actually favors posting in the most SPECIFIC sub and letting it trickle UP to all the more general ones above it, whereas it wont trickle down to more specific subs, which will lead to a natural organization of the posts

I LOVE categories (ie. on Wikipedia) that can have more than just one hierarchical parent. (ie. Schwarzenegger parents: Actors, Governors, Mr. Universes, etc.) Top categories like science would have a lot of sub-fields, many that would overlap with other fields like medicine, engineering, space, etc.
I really like the idea that you sub to all children-subs too. It simply makes sense. I would unsub from games and most sports.
These "subs" can simply be categories or metatags too, if that makes it easier.
Important on the wikis: do not loop categories because apparently the server keeps needlessly processing. (ie: Don't make your grandfather your child.)
Easy simple incentives are good.
