I've been doing this shit hardcore as a hobby for 2-3 years, and I'm still learning stuff. For example I had to ask users how to make a multisub. How you do it is hovering over the 'subscribe' button for a sub, over in the sidebar. Then the magic UI for this functionality appears. Not clear cut at all. These are reddit-isms we are open to improving upon.

Another example is filtering out subs from a listing... it's possible but not documented clearly or shown in the UI anywhere. E.g. https://saidit.net/s/all-ice_poseidon2/new

Wait--exactly how did you perform this glorious magic? (also what's a multi?)

just hover over 'subscribe' or 'unsubscribe' in a sidebar, and you see a new text field "create new multi". Multisubs are subs made of other subs. So here's a music one I'm trying to maintain, filled with all of saidit's music subs:

SaidIt didn't make any of this, it's all existing reddit stuff.

Thanks! When I referred to your glorious magic I meant making that sub disappear.

Ahhh thanks, I was confused. That minus functionality is Reddit code too. There's also the + version for making an on the fly multisub/listing 2+ subs at once.
