As a new reddit exile, I may be misunderstanding this.

In theory something like a !gaming community could crop up on multiple large instances, especially during the mass exodus while instances are getting hammered with spikes in volume.

If that’s the case, we’ll have fragmented communities across instances. Is there any way besides subscribing to each of them to combine them into a sort of multi-reddit type aggregation? Or is this considered a temporary (albeit important to adoption) problem during the crazy stages?

    Oh I understand how it works and the PROBLEM is that me, the user, shouldn’t give a shit if lemmy.world blocks sh.it just.works because the two admins are mortal enemies. But right now, I have to, because I would lose the content if one blocks the other.

    Also, when you have 10,000 servers and on each server someone created a “Technology” community on all of them, how will ANY of those communities get any traction or a concentrated user base? As a creator, I’d be cross posting on every Technology community in every server I could find. That’s going to serve to fracture the comments section, which is where all the value comes from anyway.
