A few questions about how kbin works (kbin.social)

So, I have some doubts about a few things, if they are even possible/if they are working as intended/if they are coming soon.

1- Is it the intended beheaviour that the numbers of subscriptions seen from kbin and seen from Lemmy differ?

2- Is there any way to search for a username?

3- When searching for communities, will there be a way to filter/order by nuber of Threads/Comments/Posts?

4- I prefer in my home to look at content I've subscribed to, is there a way to set it as my preference to not look at the ALL page, but subscribed page instead?

So, I'm no expert. But my understanding is that

  1. that's intended (because you're subscribed to a "kbin mirror" of the OG community if I got this right)
  2. yes, "@FirstSeaLord@kbin.social" or for lemmy instances "@example_user@lemmy.world" (didn't want to use an actual user name here youknow)
  3. idk, probably/hopefully?
  4. yes, under settings/general/appearances you can change that.

edit: what I'm personally waiting for is the opportunity to search with wildcards. So like "@news@lemmy.*" for all lemmy instances with communities named news.
