I made a blog post on my biggest issue in Lemmy and the proposed solutions for it. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.

I’m aware that people are slowly grouping up to one specific community per topic but I don’t think this means there isn’t an issue with communities being fractured. Using a third party tool to gauge which communities are popular also isn’t a great solution. Just searching Linux shows:
I don’t think each one of these communities has a different audience. It’s the same audience, but there isn’t an obvious answer for which one to visit or post in.
Id say that the obvious answer is the Linux community with the most members. !linux@lemmy.ml has more than double the number of subscribers of the next most active Linux community.
Sure unless your instance is defederated, we need more ways to control the content without relying on defederation
It makes me feel like I should be making the post to multiple communities, but then I feel like I’m spamming
Hopefully defederation will happen less and less with 19.X allowing users to block instances themselves
Yeah I think there needs to be more options though, for admins and for users. Like conditional caching or proxying of images from other instances.
And not just blocking instances but choosing to block all the users from an instance without blocking their communities, or only blocking their comments not their posts. Also admins should be able to set default blocks that all the users get but can change individually
That would be nice indeed, but with the development rhythm, it might take a while to get there. Sublinks on the other hands seems promising sublinks.org
But then you’re on .ml
You don’t need an account on lemmy.ml to subscribe to any community there. For example, I run my own self-hosted instance and none of the communities I’m subscribed to are from my own instance.
Oh I meant more that you’re interacting with them.
.ml is okay to discuss Linux, the overlap between the two communities makes sense
The overlap between authoritarians and Linux?
Well I suppose North Korea does run the closed source RedStarOS.
I meant hardcore leftists
Oh like me?
Yeah we do overlap with Linux, the tankies however don’t.
what makes you think they are authoritarian?
Because we all know how tankies are, so stop acting coy.
Maybe you should go conquer some bread instead of trying to defend maoists and stalinists.
Why does the this ignorant speech infest so many threads? No one gives a shit and any keyboard warrior crap you’re doing in your free time isn’t going to change anything going on in the world.
An opinion based on knowledge can hardly be called ignorant.
But if you’re having a bad day, hopefully that lil outburst helped you release some tension.
no one is defending maoists or stalinists.
You’re saying no one on .ml defends maoists and stalinists???
I bet nutomic has Che as their avatar for no reason at all.
parentis_shotgun posts in juche_gang on reddit for irony?
In this case, it’s the first, which is obvious based on the number of subscribers and active users. You don’t even need a third party tool, it’s literally in the sidebar
