Reddit only had one subreddit for a topic, now Lemmy has multiple “ask lemmy”-communities for example - each on a different instance. What are your thoughts on this? I personally find it annoying to have to follow the “same” community 5 times for each community that I want to be part of. Is there a way to synchronize them, so that you post in c/asklemmy on lemmy.one and it appears and is able to being interacted with on lemmy.world? Should one become the dominant one and triumph on the others (instance wars ;). Or should I just get to peace with joining asklemmy on 5 different instances?

    I think it’s a fallacy of our time that we have to be connected to all and get all content. Does it matter that some people are in a different but similar community? Do they need to be bridged?

    Maybe this is something that an app can do. Like multi-reddits, just present multiple communities in a consolidated stream.

      This. There’s too much FOMO now. Just follow one and if you don’t like the content, then move to another.
