# Community subscriptions

Using subscriptions, you can choose specific areas of interest. Your activity feed and notifications are personalized according to your subscriptions.

**Important:**

Starting with the Brazil release, Communities is being prepared for future deprecation. It will be hidden and no longer installed on new instances but will continue to be supported. For details, see the [Deprecation Process \[KB0867184\]](https://support.servicenow.com/kb_view.do?sysparm_article=KB0867184) article in the Now Support Knowledge Base.
