Strongly agree on this one. If there’s already multiple gaming communities. Popular topics might have multiple communities on multiple instances very soon and that’s confusing for people.
As long as it is like that, i would agree. But i fear there might be competing communities that are mostly similar. Might be that through Darwinian selection at one point the fittest community survives but until then it might get confusing.
yeah I’ll be interested to see how it all plays out starting on the 12th, and especially after July 1st
we will likely see multiple communities vying to be ‘top dog’ in their respective specialties
as far as I can tell this really isn’t a problem for other federated software like Mastodon because people just use hashtags over there instead of defined communities with rules like reddit/lemmy where people ‘join’ and generally hang out

I think it could be a good thing overall
each community might have a different culture so you can choose which to participate in
like r/gaming vs. r/games on reddit
both are ‘gaming’ communities but are not really the same in content

either way I’m excited to see what happens
