    Things like defederation and having communities with the same topic on different instances are actually good things, they’re features of the Fediverse not problems.

    It takes a bit of adapting to the Fediverse mindset as opposed to the centralized platform mindset but there are solutions:

    • Having multiple communities like OP said is a good thing, let’s see which one rises to the top.
    • There are already Lemmy clients that can subscribe to accounts on multiple instances and merge everything seamlessly for you.
    • A multireddit-like feature will probably be implemented eventually, and I suspect it will also be a client feature not a server feature, because it makes much more sense on the client.

      How are users that aren’t interested in following the state of each community supposed to know which one is “on top” or the best community to post to or watch for relevant information? I don’t agree that making meta-level knowledge of the site mandatory to successfully navigating it is healthy or smart for the long term success of lemmy.

        How did you pick between Coke and Pepsi? You picked the one you liked. Choice is a good thing, I think you’re making this harder than it needs to be.

          A lot of these arguments are starting to sound like Reddit is astroturfing around here.

            A lot of people are fresh off of Reddit and are looking for an exact clone of Reddit, which is fair enough. They don’t understand Federation and think Lemmy needs to stop doing it, lol. Like, Squables is that way - - - >
