This is a big problem. It creates the illusion that /c/cats on one particular instance is the real /c/cats.

This is the root of re-centralization and it must be pulled out.

    This will sort itself out as people get used to and understand the fediverse better. I think not having a good cross instance search for communities is part of the contributing factor to this confusion. At least it was for me.

        It’s what I use, too; I think the issue is that a new user is likely to be on a given instance, and not especially likely to know that they should go to another site to figure out what to add (assuming no one else on the server has already added stuff, anyway.).
