As lemmy grows organically, there will be continuous increases in duplicate communities. This poses a long-term problem because I don’t think most people want to subscribe to half a dozen or more communities that are essentially the same.
Is there any chance that the thought leaders of Lemmy which probably includes the largest servers owners could come together and start proposing ideas?
I see a potential troubling issue with the idea in terms of combining the existing history of the duplicates communities.
Perhaps a new concept of community@global could be thought through.
At first I thought it would be much more complicated to join and use than it really is. I really like the concept but the platform still feels pretty janky, needs polishing and some QoL features that are currently missing. Overall it’s very promising, I hope it will get adopted widely.
