So why exactly would we be automatically subscribed to every freaking sub on signup? That's just a mess. I just spent 10 minutes unclicking garbage like "test", "dddddddwst" and 4 bloody "conspiracywhatsit" subs.

Because it's an opt-out system, you just unsubscribe from the ones you don't like while you view saidit.net/s/subscribed. It doesn't matter if you're subbed to subs that never post because they won't show up. That was the design intent, sorry it wasn't super clear to you, we'll work to improve it.

You can unsubscribe from all of them at once in your user preferences if you like.

We made /all the front page so stuff doesn't get lost in the cracks, because it's a small community still. We may soon switch back to the subscribed page being the front page, or make it a user option to choose which of the two you prefer as your front page.

How does one create a new community?

After your account is 2 weeks old, the "create a sub" button will appear next to the "post a link" buttons. Let me know if you have any more questions!
