I’ve been noticing lately how much I miss the previous software’s ability to show me a list of subscribed threads. Makes going to one to add something a bit easier. ---

Could this help? > [@Very happy with Discourse](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/very-happy-with-discourse/919602/48): > > It is rarely used but [https://boards.straightdope.com/posted](https://boards.straightdope.com/posted) is similar to what you’re asking for. Just because you posted in a topic doesn’t necessarily mean you are watching or tracking it, but it usually does. People have said that it’s similar to the “subscribed posts” list. You could bookmark it if it helps. I don’t use it, so I’m not an expert about it, but others have noted that it was what they were looking for. ---

Three useful shortcuts you might want to have: (1st one mentioned above) [https://boards.straightdope.com/posted](https://boards.straightdope.com/posted) leads to all recently changed **threads you posted to** [Straight Dope Message Board - Your direct line to thousands of the smartest, hippest people on the planet, plus a few total dipsticks.](https://boards.straightdope.com/u/user_name/activity/topics) change the user\_name to your user name and see the **threads you started**.

Protip, you don’t need to change the username, the shortcut `/my/` is universal, e.g. try this link `https://boards.straightdope.com/my/activity/topics` [https://boards.straightdope.com/my/activity/topics](https://boards.straightdope.com/my/activity/topics) ---
