Thoughts on a Feed Group Feature? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I'm wondering what you all might think of a feature allowing you to group certain communities you're subscribed to into groups. So like, if you wanted a news group you could put in c/technology, c/news, etc, etc. And then you could switch to that group feed whenever you want just content from those news communities. Would this be practical? Possible? Would anyone use this?

If I understand it right, this is a feature developed from inception on Piefed. I'll just say it here: it's like multireddits. They have default comm group feed, at least on piefed.social. But you also can make your own group feed. Just like multireddit.

I personally would move to a piefed instance once it's more developed and have more choices for front end client / mobile app, since that's the biggest thing I miss from reddit.

Edit: and IIRC piefed also group same posts from different duplicate / similar comms into one "post".
