No easy way to subscribe to a tag(s)

So one of the things I'm finding hard in steemit... Is to subscribe and follow topics of interest

I'm finding the discovery process is lacking.

The new/hot/promoted have a lot of stuff that doesn't interest me, and often in other languages.

It's hard for communities to develop if you can't have a Reddit style subscription to tags of choice...

Unless I'm missing something that is obvious?
