As a new reddit exile, I may be misunderstanding this.
In theory something like a !gaming community could crop up on multiple large instances, especially during the mass exodus while instances are getting hammered with spikes in volume.
If that’s the case, we’ll have fragmented communities across instances. Is there any way besides subscribing to each of them to combine them into a sort of multi-reddit type aggregation? Or is this considered a temporary (albeit important to adoption) problem during the crazy stages?
I’m not sure if there’s a better way, but I found this: https://browse.feddit.de/
It crawls most of the instances and lets you search for communities across all of them.
https://lemmyverse.net/communities is also good
Thanks! I hadn’t seen that list yet, it looks pretty good too. Hopefully something similar to either of these options will be included in a future release.
