I come from Reddit and been enjoying Lemmy so far. How is Lemmy dealing with multiple communities on the same topic? To me:
- If the communities are all active, then I shall subscribe to all of them, but end up having lots of duplicate/similar posts on my feed
- If there is one community that is dominating, then what is the point of federation?
I was subscribed to [email protected], and just because I actively went into it, I saw a post that the community was frozen and they decided to use another android community on a different server, to avoid fragmentation.
I would love it if Lemmy adopted Misskey’s ‘Antenna’ feature. It provides custom timelines based on saved searches.
Give us community and post tags, allow for custom timelines based on saved searches, and Bob’s your uncle.
