Please check my post, I think everything I said is very valid, but I want this community to see it too, and help steer the discussion, I think reddit is doing this intentionally.

    @communist federation is an issue when you get multiple communities on the same topic. There is the “technology” community on beehaw, there is also the “technology” community on lemmy.ml, then there are countless communities named the same on other servers as well. But I do not think federation is an issue. I know of at least one site that has the same issue with multiple communities with the same name. And it is centralized. And it has no issue with that.

    It’s name is facebook.com

      This is not an issue with federation, centralized services like reddit have the exact same problem, it’s just a problem with anything that lets anyone build a community, really.
