Thank you for your comment!
There are many communities that are similar on different instances, firefox for example.
Sometimes they are identical and should merge, sometimes due to the specific audience of the instance, it's better to keep them separate.
I wouldn't suggest merging !movies@lemmy.world and !movies@hexbear.net
Would be nice if lemmy supports something like multi Reddit with the option of hiding duplicate posts.
Mbin does support multireddits, but this doesn't seem to be interesting enough for people to switch to it (while Lemmy communities are fully accessible from Mbin)
Good to see you here, feel free to have a look around, I hope you will find some discussions interesting
Misskey is infamous for having a LOT of forks
Seems like at some point they wanted a fork for every letter of the alphabet ha ha
Feel free to have a look: https://old.reddit.com/r/mildlyinfuriating/comments/1cd8ng5/the_price_increase_of_disney_over_the_past_4_years/
The few top comments are quite neutral, then it gets into the "CANCEL. YOUR. SUBSCRIPTION." territory.
So I guess now Lemmy is on par with Reddit? Anyway
Beehaw is at least considering it. They'll probably poll their community once Sublinks is released, but if the mod tools are better there and the features are the same, I don't see why they wouldn't switch
I see where they come from. Hopefully Sublinks will have better moderation tools, and potentially allow them to refederate.
In the meantime, we are kind of stuck in the middle.
I keep hearing about bad moderation, so I guess it's indeed an issue.
It is really a compromise, there is no ideal situation. Should we initiate something and ask people to leave LW due to bad moderation? That would probably be seen as unnecessary drama.
A post a day in a community is a bot, more often than not, and trying to create discussion on bot posts often just falls on deaf ears.
In this case, I'm pretty sure it's not, it's a mix between @The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world, @garfaagel@sh.itjust.works, myself and a few others.
We had a nice discussion a few weeks ago about metal bands (https://dormi.zone/post/1721444)
organically support active communities wherever they’re found.
Makes sense
so you don’t see so many duplicate posts in your feed and all those individual discussions are instead in one place.
I guess at some points moderators of communities around a same topic will have to agree on where to host the community. The split between !android@lemmy.world and !android@lemdro.id still doesn't make sense to me today.
Interesting, thanks!
