Would try checking in @kbinStyles - someone might have a style or fancy script that can call kbin.social/subs and replace the top bar with the output or something like that.
It's not default when you login. Maybe it should be? But kbin.social/subs will populate a list of posts from magazines that you are subscribed to vs. the random ones.
It really is frustrating. I started off with kbin, but have found myself using Lemmy more simply due to being able to use wefwef, which is inspired by Apollo.
Still learning the ropes here but some things are just annoying af.
It looks the update fixed it. I have subscribed as my home page and since the update whwn I go to kbin.social it redirects to kbin/social/sub Thanks u/ernest
