I don’t understand how Lemmy intends to do it when the different instances are federated, if several instances create the same community for example…is that possible?

    It’d be pretty easy to have a “subscribe to community on all supported instances” to auto-subscribe to all the communities with the same name on instances your root instance federates with or doesn’t block, and you can then go in and refine your subscription options by selecting and unselecting individual communities.

    A bigger problem is what we should do with communities that are dedicated to the same topic but have different names. Like /c/foss and /c/freesoftware.
