I agree and I think we should merge instances too, and maybe appoint a CEO to take care of it. we can call it lemmit.

I think it would be cool if something like "meta-communities" existed. Fully adjustable, fully optional. Less duplicates.

You'd sub to one meta c/memes or c/news and see a combined feed of all known instance's versions. Post to whichever you want, show up in the meta (if you want).

If you still want to block from the meta sub or individually sub to c/memes on ABC instance, you could do that. Moderation would be subject to the instance the user posted on, subject to broader instance admin's defederations and stuff.

Idk just a quick idea. Decentralization is good, but a little bit of... aggregation like this could go a long way without actually centralizing power. Could help communities (big and small niche) to grow.

I've been saying this over a year ago:

This why lemmy and federation instances are so missing and empty. We don't even have the option to make custom subscription lists or I'd have manually done that. It's so badly needed

Isn't RSS what you're describing?

This is a fantastic idea. I really love the decentralization of Lemmy, but I do feel the side effects of having many copies of the same subject on different instances.

And to your point, I'd love for niche communities to have a larger audience. I need somewhere to post and read about project zomboid.

Sounds like a whole app idea.

The chronically online weirdos on world don't like the chronically online weirdos on ml. They are both chronically online weirdos and I try to view these really active communities or names I recognize like a zoo. These people are throwing shit at eachother for our amusement. Keep it separate.

I see we both took a day trip to the zoo and got locked up by accident.
