I'm new to Boost. Quality of Life questions (lemmy.world)

I've been using Sync for a while and decided to try Boost but I can't seem to find certain settings. I don't know if I'm just missing them and they are super obvious or they haven't been implemented yet so my apologies if these are newb questions.

I'd love for my default sort to be "Everything" instead of "Subscribed" communities. So far, lemmy has been amazing and have only subscribed to specific communities. Is there a way to set this? I already set it to my preferred sort (Top 6 hours) but don't see a way to set it to all of Lemmy.
Is there a way to set a "default" account? Eg upon closing the app, when I reopen it, I'd like it to default to a specific account. I've been collecting a few different lemmy instance accounts but consider this one my main.
is there a way to set different sort options and different viewing options per account? I have a porn account and a normal account and would prefer my normal account to filter out NSFW (so that I can have it on at work).

Thanks!

IDK about the first two, still learning it myself, but for your third bullet point:

Settings > Account Preferences > Show NSFW

This is a setting that's saved by your instance, not by Boost, so if you change it on one account it shouldn't affect the others. I think.

Question: General > Subscriptions (under Navigation) and you can set as default whichever you like from the 3 dots menu next to each.

The other questions I can't answer because I don't have multiple accounts.

Thanks! I figured there was a way to do it but wish it was a bit more intuitive!

It's quite customisable but as a result takes a little figuring out. I think your other questions may be feature requests as I don't know if it has the ability to do that.

EDIT: under Account Preferences in settings you can uncheck show nfsw per account. This is lemmy-wide though, not just Boost iirc.
