While I'm at it, is there a way to subscribe to "My discussions" so activity shows up on the Home feed? I know I can get notifications, but I want them in the main stream.
Ian, if the person posting the discussion is on your home feed list, then that activity does show up on your home feed.

Ok, but if the person isn't on my home feed list, it doesn't show up (e.g., your reply didn't). It would be nice if it did, otherwise I might miss it..

The differences (if not distinctions) between one's own feed, Home, and My Discussions can best be explained as Ego, Aggregate, and Sieve channels. The first one contains every post you ever initiated; second all other subs you signed for; and third a LIFO-cumulative record of everything you ever contributed to (incl. Likes, which really should be thought of as Flags, whether one "liked" something or "liked against" it). Now I've succeeded in messing up the terms even more, which –come to think of– might have been my subconscious goal all along.

Also I want this for the real-time API with home. Or a real-time API for discussions.

I understand the differences. But I can subscribe to Groups--why can't I subscribe to my discussions?
- Ian Murdock
Because you'd be subscribing to an already aggregated parts-view that may or may not include threads from groups you are not subscribed to, only visited intermittently? Apparently this is how FF wants us to distinguish between Home- and Outhouse-held debates.

I still want to track the posts which I liked and/or commented at the public stream and search results, without opening the "My discussions".
