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?

Honestly, I think a better idea is to separate human-readable names and formal names. say, the community ID is a random 128 bit string (could also be a public key if you do something neat with cryptography) and then the community’s human readable name is a mutable variable that can be set or change, and doesn’t have to be unique
